Re: Midiox settings to transmit and receive syx file to the Casio VZ1

2011-05-30 by narfman96

Hi Tjeu,

The first 20 is for the CZ101 - CZ5000 synths. The 21 is for the CZ1. The second 20 writes to the internal memory location A1. For the 32 patch synths 20 to 3F is the range from A1 to H8. If your synth stores fewer patches the number scales accordingly. The edit buffer location should be 60. Then you can save it wherever. All these numbers are in hex.

Now why would we flame anybody who can figure out their CZ sysex? :) I'm leaving myself wide open....    Fran
