Yes. Thanks Bill & Wilson, I've got it going now and it's working perfectly. I assumed that the Modulation button on the CZ1 was only for settings related to the mod wheel. Also, as I couldn't find anything about After Touch in the Manual's table of contents so I was mostly hunting for the info much further on, around page 29 where it discusses the velocity settings for the keys (as that was the closest related thing I could think of to after touch). Thanks for all the help! It always seems to be the simplest things that get me stumped and the stuff I think is going to be really hard that ends up going smoothly!
