Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I didn't hear anything back on the saxaphone patch guys.  

Where is everybody-this group has gone dead.

Anyway, I would love to hear back from the group about your feelings 
on trying to get Yamaha DX7 FM sounding stuff on your CZ.  I've made 
a couple of FM sounding basses that are in my opinion, pretty decent 
in the FM world.  They are hard and crisp and yet have a warm feel as 
well.  It is so important to have a real hard attack and then have 
the ring mod set on 1 or 2 but not 3, it's emphazies too high of a 
harmonic.  Sometimes I can get it using the Ring set on 0 but it is 
too dull in my opinion.  FM bass needs to stand out in a mix.

Are there any others with tips on getting FM bass out of their CZ?

Something else is setting the line select to 1+1-it really add's the 
beef needed.  I found in the waveform selection to go for 3 | 4 and 
then take your key follow's and set them down to 0.  Don't worry 
about dco but for your dcw set it at 99 | 97 / 63 | 00 / (sus)55 | 98 
and then end it on the next stage of the env.  For your dca, make 
sure the attack is fast and don't let the it have too much sustain.

Does it sound exactly like the DX?  No, not as clean and crisp-the CZ 
is more grittier and distorted-I don't think that is so bad but you 
can't get FM exactly.  The envelope's distort-especially when you are 
trying to get a bass.  Bells on the other hand, work pretty good but 
it seems to get them as clean as a DX7, they kind of sound out of 
tune and almost unuseable.  

I could be wrong in all of this-prove me wrong.  Do you have a CZ FM 
sounding bass patch that could rival the mighty DX?
