Re: [CZsynth] Best backup battery solution for CZ-1000?

2016-07-21 by Caleb Garner

i opted to not go that route because it still has a permanent battery.. 
sure it will be good for x number of years.. but eventually more 
soldering will be required..  i'm going with a 2032 approach where i can 
replace batteries without soldering ever again..


plus i've had more gear be destroyed or nearly destroyed by those barrel 
shaped batteries..  no thank you :)


my comment about memory is complaining to casio for only giving a user 
16 patches to work with internally.. come on man.. that's just bad..  
and i thought yamaha f'd up when they gave the tx7 32 slots.  :)
