Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Hello, I'm the drummer in a local original band in O.C. and currently we're working on our first demo. I've been a musician for awhile now ( years! )and have lot's of past and current material as well as pix I've been meaning to put on my own website to have some way of letting anyone who is interested, hear what I've did and what I'm doing. I invited a guy who I met while visiting a mutual friend came over to listen to some of my recording's/demo's and talk about music in general, and what my band is doing now in our recording/rehearsal studio. During the coversation, I mentioned how I would like to buy a keyboard for my own possible creative input and working on some midi background sounds during my drum solo to enhance my performance. He tell's me he dig's our tunes, then say's if I would beintersted in this keyboard he has for sale, in great condition. I said "Hell yes!", only one problem, but if I find the missing part he would sell it for $100.00. I said if I don't? He said to
 keep it and do whatever with it because has never been able to find the one. I took it. Later he said to keep it. he didn't want it anymore. So, now I'm hoping if there's anyone who know's what I can do to make this work with either another cartridge or who to contact, it would be put to excellant use. Can anyone guide me in the direction I wish to venture through, and help me get the catridge or the fix so I may use this, especially since I have CakeWalk/Sonor and have using my PC to make midi tunes and polish the files of midi cover music done of the popular tunes and ones I play to with my drums-live!?? Yes, I play real live drums to the most awsome midi file's I totally dig. Even though there's no vocals, some are done so well, it's like playing with the best musician's I've been inspired by for many years! Rush, Yes, Genesis, etc......please send my anything you can! Thanks

Hi,

you know that you don't need a cartridge to make the CZ-1 usable. The CZ-1 comes 
without one, and the presets sounds can be retrieved with for instance a factory 
reset (should be holding init while switching the synth on and pressing the Yes 
button to confirm)...

Okay, if you could please excuse the late email. I really want to get 
this going so, I found the "init" button but what button are you 
talking about "pressing 'yes", where is it located exactly? The only 
button that says "yes" is the cursor button, so can you tell me and 
describe where? I hope you can help me, I've had this for awhile and 
am getting to the point where I want to have it looked at by a tech 
to get it working-Thanks--- In CZsynth@yahoogroups.com, "Summa"

Hi,

it's mentioned on page 64 of the CZ-1 manual you can download from Casio New 
Zealand. I had to do it once or twice when my CZ-1 had hickups due to a problem 
with the backlight.

Here's the procedure...

(1) While the power of the unit is off, press and hold down the INITIALIZE key 
and switch power on.

You should see a 

SYSTEM ALL 
Initialize (Y/N) 

on the display

(2) Press the YES Key in the Data Entry Section while holding down the INITIALIZE 
key. This procdedure initializes the entire internal memory of the CZ-1 to values 
of [...] 

You should see a

SYSTEM 
INITIALIZED !!

message on the display...

Yes, it's one of the cursor key.. :)

...Summa
