As for storability, yes--you can create patches and save them in the VZ line as well as transfer them between the VZ and a computer via sysex (system exclusive) data dumps.
As for sounds of ethnic instruments,keep in mind the VZ is a synth as opposed to either a sampler or a rompler. The latter two can play back digitized samples of actual acoustic ethnic instruments. With the sampler, you can but sample libraries (such as E-Mu's Old World Instrument CD set, among others). With the VZ synth engine the closest you can come is electronic simulations.
Since you already have the VZ, I strongly encourage you to get the various sysex banks as mentioned above to see if there there are sounds that will serve your needs.
