There's a lot of overlap between the Montage and the Genos. A lot of the "Performances" and "Arpeggios" in the workstation are derived from Yamaha's arranger keyboards. Arranger keyboards, though, are anathema to a lot of musicians because of their association with the kind of one-man-band acts that perform in nursing homes, airport lounges, Oktoberfesten, and so on. (It's no accident they usually have whole banks of presets dedicated to genres like Schlager and Polka.)
