Has anyone else had problems with just a lot of internal circuit noise coming out of the cz-1. Not talking about the clicking thing in earlier posts-just a lot of white noise. Is my cz-1 got something wrong with it or are all of your 20 year old cz-1's starting to do the same thing? sure sounds great though micah

Most of the 80s synths are pretty noisy compared to todays hardware. When it comes to the CZ-1 turning off the internal chorus should help a lot to reduce it but will not completely shut it off. If the output is very weak and changing in Volume you might have a problem with the Relais, that normaly prevents clicking after turning on the CZ... ...Summa On 4 Apr 2005 at 23:47, yazzofever wrote: > > > Has anyone else had problems with just a lot of internal circuit noise > coming out of the cz-1.

Summa, thanks for the response-no i think the relays are alright, no clicking just background fuzz-you are probably right, just another quirk about 80's synths. My microkorg I use for comparison is so quiet when turned up. Summa-did you get my earlier post about the cartridges on the cz-1 and how to replace the battery? I need to do that on my RA-6 cartridge but I don't know how. micah --- Summa <flotorian@...> wrote: > Most of the 80s synths are pretty noisy > compared to todays hardware.

You can add a noise gate to help clean things up. _____

Hi Micah, well, most of my 80s synths are having a good amount of noise floor, my MT32 even produce a slight high hum. Not audiable with the crappy mixer I used by that time but not remotely as clean as todays synthesizers... I never worked with cartridges, but I think I remember ppl. had a discussion about that topic some time ago, you might find something by searching thru older postings... ...Summa On 4 Apr 2005 at 20:52, M.J.B. wrote: > > Summa, > > thanks for the response-no i think the relays are > alright, no clicking just background fuzz-you are > probably right, just another quirk about 80's > synths.
