Re: [CZsynth] Waveform ROM Hack?

2014-10-30 by analogmonster@...

If it is Sean's page you're after it would be http://homepage.mac.com/synth_seal/html which no longer works but is on Waybackmachine.

You must mean the Sean's pages. That site doesn't exist anymore. It was hosted under the mac.com domain or something related to Apple, but I cannot recall exactly.

On the other side, I would like to obtain a warmer sound, since nobody would change my mind about the fact that amplification sector of the synth sends out yes, a powerful sound, but with a little plastic feeling. Someone could say " Hey, it's the synth, due its digital nature!". Of course, but any time i hear it, something says me in my brain: " There must be something that could be done, to have a warmer sound from the board"....

I saw some years ago on the web a very good page regarding various synths and effects, carefully explaining about a CZ 1 deep editing, made using Sysex parameters, if I well remember, to gain some extra waveforms with resonance. Maybe three or four, can't say now. Nobody remembers it?

Luckily I could see again the pages, unluckily not all the images and explaination schematics, nor the .sit files to obtain the deep editing on.... SoundDiver, maybe? I tried every way, but all I got was a 3 Kb file for every file I wanted to archive again.And it was a generic file, not the true original..... :-( .
