Really? Maybe there's some way to go straight from the backup rom to the ram
that's holding the active sound with out first storing the patch in the
preset RAM. I seem to remember that the CZ-1 had a few cool tricks like that
from reading the manual a while back (its been a long while back). Can't you
also copy envelope settings or something too? I seem to remember being
impressed by being able to do something like that too. Really though, I do
almost all my CZ editing via PC so I never get to play with these CZ-1
tricks. I really really like my CZ-1, it's an awesome synth. One of my all
time favorites. Just out of curiosity how many Casio's do you all have? I'll
go first:
CZ-1000 =My first synth
CZ-5000 =Latest addition to the collection, $70 from local pawn shop so I
couldn't resist. It's missing the volume slider knob though. = (   Anyone
have a spare?  
CZ-1 =Yeah this rocks!!
VZ-8m
2 VZ-10ms =I bought all the VZs new for a few $100 each, well worth it too.
I love them. 
1 PG-380 Midi Guitar =Cool instrument but mine needs repair as it's got the
dreaded PG380 bad capacitor disease
1 MG500 Midi Guitar =Guitar I play most, its light, sounds good, plays well,
looks evil and outputs MIDI to boot.
DG-20 Midi Horn =LOL!
MT-68 =Actually this was my first synth, it's analog too!! Actually this my
first argument that analog doesn't necessarily sound good.

	the cz-1 can recall the presets without erasing the user memory....

	i forget how to do it, but it's in the manual.
	basically, the cz-1 is like 64 factory sounds, ~AND~ 64 user sounds.
