Re: Casio VZ-1/10m preset?

2012-07-08 by montequi

I have the same issue with the Yamaha PSS-680.  There is editing software for that, but it uses large sysex dumps.  The BCR2000 is useless for it.

This may have been common for some of the early Midi synths.

I don't think real time editing with knobs can be done. I guess Casio thought the big display on the vz would make it easy to edit from the front panel
