Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

know of any famous artists that use VZ, or any famous songs with it? /Ö

I remember seeing a VZ in Vince Clark's Rack when he was touring with 
Erasure.

Vince definately played the CZ-1 in the early days of Erasure (first 
album). When I was about 16 I read an article in a Pop-Mag 
showing him and Andy standing in a very small room under the 
attic - the first "homestudio" after Yaz(oo).

The first 10 Keys of the Keyboard were taped and labeled. Can't 
remember, maybe letters from A - J or BD, Snare, HH etc. - a 
Master for a Sampler? ;-)

Thought  the CZ must be a BIG Synth (lot of plastic buttons!) so I 
tested it a local Music Store... ehem. The Sounds sucked and it 
took me about 9 months to buy one (luckily) second hand for 
1100 DM. Home again I was the king, even though I did not really 
understood how to manage to make it sound like Vince did.

;-)

A good effects unit makes a WORLD of difference!  In college I once
performed live in an auditorium (for a class project) using a $2,000
Lexicon reverb unit borrowed from the school audio-visual department.
The CZ sounded like the best synth in the world with that thing!  (Not
the playing, mind you, but the CZ + expensive Lexicon.)  Some really
cool effects on that thing...  Someday I'll get rich and buy one.

Very true. Darn, even a good chorus pedal can make a difference,
let alone good rack effects.

We on this list already know that     :)

You shouldn't wait to buy a lexicon. There are some real nice budget
units out there. Even the Digitech Quad V2 can make a lot of difference,
and the Boss VF-1 is even cooler. I do think it's underrated.

I recently took the plunge and bought the TC Electronic Fireworx,
but it's more like a synth than an effects unit, serious.


cheers

Maxim
PS. Try the "Superchorus" preset on the Digitech unit. It really
is super. Like a wall of sound.

...depeche Mode used a VZ1 on the Album EXITER!!!!

Edgar Froese of Tangerine Dream also has two VZ in his Setup.
But the Hohner labeled ones.

I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned, but
They Might Be Giants used a CZ-101 for all of the bass
on their first album, and The Rice Face Brothers use a
CZ-1000 for most of their bass, as well as sstrings,
organ, and odd sounds.

that 'guava' album by Ween had cz-101 presets all over it.  They 
really stick out!

Really, anyone know of any albums they were used on?

Tasmin Archer's "Sleeping Satellite" had a solo courtesy the CZ-101
organ preset, FYI.
