Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

CZ-1, and also CZ 3000/ 5000 can only load the data from the RA-3 (and
RA-5) card into the CZ's internal memory. As such I find the cards rather
pointless for the big CZ's as they don't actually add any extra memory to
the 3000/5000/1, whereas with the 101 and 1000 it does give you extra patch
memory as well as the existing internal memory banks.

I have an RA-3 card that works with my CZ-1 and also CZ3000, yet freezes up
my 101 and a friend's 1000 if I try and get it to work on them. Which is a
shame as what I wanted was to use my 101 for developing patches (it's
petite size means it's always close to hand while it's bigger brothers are
stored elsewhere), and then when I get good patches I can transfer them
over to the CZ-1.

I'm not sure on how many patches can be held on them, I think it's actually
16 for the RA-3 and 32 for the RA-5, and I've not yet tried saving named
patches from the CZ-1 either. The CZ-1 has so many more patch locations
compared with the other CZ's I've never felt the need!

I still wish I could get my RA-3 to work with my 101 :-(
