Re: [CZsynth] Re: CZ3000 audio out is distorted. Anyone else experienced this?

Well, english is not my native language, an it was late when I was 
answered your mail. I now checked the babelfish translator at 
altavista and correct tranlation seems to be "Relay". It's an 
electromagnetic switch that waits to connect the amp section with the 
output until the rest of the synth ist ready. That way it prevents 
clicks on startup that could destroy the connected external amplifier 
when set to a high volume. I bypassed the unit since it was the 
easiest way to fix it, it's probably no problem to get a new one too 
and if you're good with the soldering iron you're probably able to 
exchange it...    

Yep, the CZ can do some great sounds, even so it was my first synt I 
still use it very often ... 

Is there a place/page where I can hear your music?
