Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Hi Atom,

have you read my little VZ-1 tutorial, it shows the basis for doing those CZ
like FM sweeps. On the VZ they do sounds a bit warmer than the ones of the
80s FM synths, but still a lot different to the CZ-1. Anyway, who said the
CZ is using only 2 Ops per "Oscillator". Other than that the VZ can do thing
the CZ and most Yamaha FM synths can do. Especially using ringmodulation
togehter with FM is a fine thing. Having five saw type waveforms is nearly
like having feedback for every operator on an FM synth or like the skirt
parameter of the FS1R. Also (with some limitations) it's possible to create
your own algorithms and to layering 4 VZ sounds (don't know if the VZ-8 can
do this too) what can sound quite great...
