Re: [CZsynth] (changed) FZ synthesizer discussion...what does it really do?

16 bit is no garantie for a clean sound, it only works with 36Khz and don't 
forget, when it comes to sampling, transposing the sound up and down creates some 
artefacts when sampler isn't or is hardly interpolating the sound. So other than 
todays softsamplers the FZ can create nice gritty sound when pitching down a 
samples and if I remember right the filter is kind of harsh too...
