I just did a test. There was a grounding problem hum on the PC audio when the CZ and PC were connected (MT red record to PC mic in). Neverless, I recorded an A/B digital audio dump, a C/D digital audio dump, and a sequencer digital audio dump. All three verified OK. Next, I changed an A/B preset and compared it with the digital audio dump from the PC. There was a verify error. So, I loaded back in the original A/B, got an OK on the load, reverified, and got an OK. It would seem that despite the hum, it worked. I used Sound Forge XP 4.5 for the test. Opinion: If you have sysex capability for patch and sequencer dumps on a PC, I'd recommend that over digital audio dumps! Hope this helps
