Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Thanks for the thoughts, max.  I tend to recall that low frequency 
response (voice) tapes worked fine--maybe even better than better 
quality music tapes.  If so, 8 bit 22KHz might be better!! I may try 
this if I ever have some spare time and if I can find my old digital 
CZ tapes.

I recall either reading or having an article decades ago that 
explained the mechanics of cassette tape interface modulation.  It 
may have been in conjunction with the Commodore 64 computer, but I 
believe the mechanics were the same.  (The phrase "frequency key 
shifting" comes to mind.  Admittedly, though, my mind isn't what it 
used to be.)
