Re: Internal Memory Backup Battery & EZ-CZ Cartridge

2010-11-19 by fulfil_objective

Nate,

People have mentioned the 9V mod, but my vote is for a set of rechargeable batteries. I do that with my CZ-101. It has the advantage of keeping you on, even if you get accidentally unplugged for a second. But for this option, you would have to have a battery charger.

I believe the batteries should be D size, not C as someone else stated.

I bet this question has been asked before... but whenever I unplug my CZ-1000 from the wall, I run the risk of all of the internal sounds I've programmed being erased, along with the pitch wheel resetting itself to super and sub-sonic range, and the instrument tuning going off. Is there a battery I can change somewhere in this synth?! Does anybody know where it is? My band is going into a series of punk rock Christmas shows this December, and I would love to not worry about showing up to the show with an empty memory bank.
