Re: CZ-1 Midi Specification available in CZ-VZ Group files section

2005-06-29 by steve_the_composer

I looked at the 1st few pages of the first pdf.  The material is from 
The Midi System Exclusive Book by Steve De Furia and Joe 
Scacciaferro, (C) 1987 by Third Earth Publishing Distributed by Hal 
Leonard. I am not sure if the book is still available.

The published edition has two "pages" printed side-by-side (landscape 
orientation).  What you posted as p 34a is the left side of published 
page 34; p34b is the right side of the same page.

The type face (so far as I can see) is identical, so it may be that 
someone scanned the pages and typeset them in a pdf.

It originally sold for $29.95.

Based on Casio's CZ-1 specs (and other Casio publications), I believe 
DeFuria and Scacciaferro simply reproduced the docs as they got them 
from Casio.   

Hope this helps.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
