Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

(1) I assume you mean the FZ-1.  The VZ-1 is not a sampler.

(2) CZ programming is somewhat intuitive.  
Basic Plan:

DCW-->DCF-->DCA
Digitally Controlled Waveform is your wave.
Digitally Controlled Filter is your filter.
Digitally Controlled Amp is your amplified.

Envelopes have 8-stages.  You have rate and level for each step. you 
can set your own sustain point and end points.

Hope this helps.
