Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I used to have one.  I may still have it somewhere.  As I recall, on 
the CZ101/CZ1000 you have 4 possibilities for storing banks of either 
8 or 16 patches (not sure whethere its 8 or 16):  AA, AB, BA, BB.  On 
the CZ3000/CZ5000 you have two possibilities for storing either 16 or 
32 patches.  The other two settings flip the order of the 1/2 banks.

I seem to recall the hump takes a couple of AA batteries.

My gut says its 4 banks of 16 on the CZ101/CZ1000 and 2 banks of 32 
on the CZ3000/CZ500.

If there are decent presets on the carts, I recommend saving the 
patches to a computer (sysex dump) before overwriting them.

Perhaps they are ones that were sold by a sound designer.  I am not 
sure if Andy Schleisenger used the EZ-CZ carts to market his sounds.  
I seem to recall seeing his name somewhere somewhere on the internet 
over the past 5 years.

Are the labels on the carts?  If so, is there anything written on 
them?

Out of curiosity, how much did they cost?

BTW, I seem to recall you needed to power down the CZ before 
inserting or removing the carts to prevent possible electronic 
damange.

Hope this helps.
