Re: [CZsynth] CZ5000?

How much better than the 1000?
Here is a comparison of their respective features:

Feature:        CZ-1000                CZ-5000
Power:          Battery/adapter        Mains only
Keyboard:       Full-size, 4 octaves   Full-size, 5 octaves
Controls:       Pitch-bend             Pitch-bend, vibrato
Memories:       16                     64
Polyphony:      1/2/4/8                1/4/8/16
Multitimbral:   4 channels             8 channels
Modes:          Mono, layer, poly      Mono, layer, poly, split
Effects:        -                      Stereo chorus
Pedal inputs:   -                      Sustain,volume
MIDI:           In, Out                In, Out, Thru

Additionally, the 5000 has a step-time multitimbral sequencer which, although somewhat dated may be useful. It should be also noted that the 1000 does not respond to sustain pedal info via MIDI.

  Subject: [CZsynth] CZ5000?


  Someone is advertising a CZ5000 for sale in my town and I was wondering how
  much better is it then the CZ1000. I have done some internet research and I
  see that it has more 'effects' then the CZ1000. What are these effects?
  Someone also mentioned the lack of filters on the 1000 so I gather the 5000
  has some sort of filter system. What sort of filters are they? Thanks in
  advance!
