Re: [CZsynth] FZ1 what it can do

2012-01-24 by jack

yes yes 

but you cant do digital on them 

i use single cycle samples and spectra waves plus samples 

and layering 8 in unison on a fz1 gives you crazy faT digital sounds and the analog filter is nice in the fz1 and it is analog signal path but has a digital control path

and those 8 time segment envelopes are just amazing

i have 3 fz1 and i just use them for mono synths

i get bass sounds that you cant get on a analog synth

i do the same on my asr10s i have 3 tracks of 8 layered patches made off transwaves 

and play them mono and lfo to filter for woble bass controled by foot controller and the 

transwave modulation is done by the mod wheel and pitch modulation done by the envelope for hoover type controll

and they are amazing no other synth comes close it eats a blofeld for breakfast 

and i have an unlimited supply of source wave forms

no im not breltram but was doing stuff at the same time

i just did sound ware for the solaris made by synth guru john bowen famous for the prophet vs the wavestaion korg oasys dsp card z1 and prophecy from them

and my sound set was for release at the latest namm over 500 samples was provided

  If you want the real thing buy a Memorymoog,18 oscillators on 
  unison,or for a cheaper alternative a Sequential Circuits Sixtrak/ 
  MultiTrak on mono unison sounds good.
  Or even cheaper,whack what you have thru an analog chorus pedal,thats 
  what I used to do.......lol

  P.S. are you sure your not Joey Beltram........?
