Re: [CZsynth] Re: A new CASIO GZ-50M page + Casio Brochure Content s + VZinfo

Thanks for your information about "CASIO Professional."
I'm very interested in the brochure as FZ-20M was not released in Japan. 
Please tell me when you scan it.
Roland CM-64 is a good synth that integrates multiple synthesers.
