Hi Jon,

this is strange since I found the output of my VZ-1 being better then the
one of my CZ-1. Of course it sounds a bit colder and harder then the CZ, but
it can do some warm stuff too. I did some great Pad sounds with that synth.
For the beginning use one of the saw waveforms 4 or 5 create pairs with
identical envelopes detune them just a bit to create phasing and the copy
this pair to the other 3 pairs and detune them to each other. You could also
add LFO etc. but finaly you get a fine pad sound that almost sound like
having a phaser at the output. If you have an external FX you should use the
chorus on the output. But also other fine "warm" sounds are possible...
