Greetings from SW Indiana -Trouble accessing the sub menus using the MULTI AREA (PAGE/ZOOM) keys.

Hello everyone,


I purchased a VZ-1 last night from a gentleman off Craigslist. I'm blown away by the build quality and the phase distortion is really exciting. I primarily spend my musical time playing guitar but over the last several years I've been introduced to soft synth plugins and synth sounds are amazing. I purchased the CZ-1 so I could get my fingers on a polyphonic synth. Unfortunately, my computer is not robust enough to handle the synth chords I've been playing and I often am limited to playing intervals with a short decay.


I stayed up this morning until about 2 am just going through presets and then running the output signal through some software plugins and a TC Helicon Voicelive 3 and a Boss DD-500 (digital delay).


HOLY SMOKES!!!! Blown away!


I've obtained a PDF manual and currently am reading it.


I've hit a sticking point though on the first exercise related to the "MULTI AREA (PAGE/ZOOM)" button. The manual says, "Note that the selected function features a total of 3 "display pages" - which means that only some of the parameters contained in this function are presently displayed. The others can be accessed by pressing the MULTI AREA (PAGE/ZOOM) keys.


Unfortunately, when i hit this key/button both individually and seperately it is not allowing me to see the other "sub menus". I have only been only to access the VEL RATE. I really want to get to the envelope so I can change the attack and decay primarily at this point in order to start shaping some pad sounds.


If anyone could help I would be very grateful.


Thanks,


Billy Glen
