Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I didn't throw my two cents worth in because I thought Daniel's diagnostic suggestions were spot on.

To the best on my recollection, CZ patches are assigned specific locations when sent as sysex data. Of course, I could be wrong.

In the strongest urging I can possibly give, I enthusiastically encourage people to read (or re-read) the Nov. 1985 Casio Midi Guide. It simplifies midi so even a child above 10 or 12 could understand it--including sysex communication.

A pdf can be found here under Files > CZ - Docs. It was uploaded as "Casio CZ Sysex," although it contains much more than the CZ Sysex details

If you look at pdf page 20 (paper page 19), there is an explanation of the preset data sysex command. The sysex header uses d1d2 in the seventh position (counting the initial F0) to indicate where the patch data goes. The Sound Area is 60 (in hex).

From sending stuff to a CZ1000 - unless the manual states that a given memory area is storing the patch - the patch will be stored in the temporary buffer.This usually means having to go through the STORE procedure before the patch is written to a memory. However it should still sound from the keyboard even if not stored.
