I am familiar with The CZ-3000 and later.  This may work on the CZ-
1000.  (You may have tried some of these.)

(1)  If the CZ-1000 has a key transpose button, set it to whatever 
value makes C = C.

(2)  If there is no button or the button doesn't work, try sysex:

F0 44 00 00 7n 41 dd F7

where n = basic channel - 1
and for dd

45 = G
44 = Ab
43 = A
42 = Bb
41 = B
00 = C
01 = C#
02 = D
03 = Eb
04 = E
05 = F
06 = F#

(correct transpose key listed above; guidebook has typos, eg 41 = 
B# !!)

For example, if keyboard C plays G, transpose up perfect 4th (since 
you can't transpose down a perfect 5th), base channel = 1:

F0 44 00 00 70 41 05 F7

OR, perhaps F0 44 00 00 70 41 00 F7 will reset it to C = C.

Hope this helps.  Let me know.
