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

I think FZ is not only clean but also warm because of its analog filter. 
I suspect that the filter may be the same as other CASIO's 2-pole analog 
filters - HZ/HT series.
With a good analog chorus effect, FZ can be used like an older digital/
analog synths like KAWAI K3 and KORG DW-8000.
I wish FZ had more polyphony - it has only 8 oscillators. When you layer 
2 OSCs you'll get only 4 voices.
