Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

you need to assign a separate midi channel to each voice


> 
> Thus it looks Something like this
> 
> CH=01 VO=01 `bass'
> CH=01 VO=02 `guitar'
> CH=01 VO=03 `piano'
> CH-01 VO=04 `choir'
> 
> So far so good, but when push on the VO channel to change the patch of
> guitar, it seems to `follow' it and changes the `bass' sound to the
> `guitar'.
> 
> When you pull it back down to the original channel (01), it goes back
> to the bass. The effect is that it makes it really hard to get a good
> understanding of what sounds go best with eachother!
> 
> The sequencer is an alesis mmt8 and I'm sending out on tracks 1,2,3,4.
> 
> Is this standard behaviour for a cz-1000? I don't expect it to run
> like a pro sound module or anything but I was really hoping it could
> run 4 seperate monophonic parts which could be changed/altered
> independently of each other.
> 
> Can anyone help? I will reward you with my three of my favourite
