Re: [CZsynth] CZ5000 Sequencer data

Copy the cassette to CD. Find someone with a 5000 to send it to, who'll load it, make a MIDI file, and send it back.Rig

     I don't know if such software exists, with very high probability not. I suppose Casio didn't publish how music data are coded in Tape signal.
Then you can try to find somebody with CZ5000 and rent it for the job. Or ask somebody to do conversion for you.
Good luck!

Hi, I used to own a CZ5000 synth in the 80's/90's and used the sequencer to create a number of songs. All these songs were saved down to cassette via the MT cable. The question I have is, is there any CZ5000 Sequencer emulation software that would enable me to load these old data sequences so that I could retrieve the sequences to use in a modern sequencer. I have considered buying a 2nd hand CZ5000 purely to load the sequences into and then play them over midi into a modern sequencer. However, trying to find a decent CZ5000 these days is quite difficult.....plus they are getting more expensive. Any suggestions welcome on how I could retrieve my old CZ5000 sequences for use again today.Many thanksSean
