i have a cz5000, all the same but with a sequencer you cant use, so you got the better deal. yes i love it, but i love my vz10m more. i dont know why the world still laughs at casio products, mine have never gone wrong, sound great and work differently in a world of me-too products.

has anyone ever tryed a cz1. this is the king-of-the-hill cz synth, with a great keyboard. you can use the cz3000/5000 multitimbrally, if you need to know i can tell you how. i usually only split the keyboard for a bass sound and a sequence part. friends have produced singles with only casio keyboards (ok a little pro-1) and drums. early house was all casio and yamaha dx. do we tell everyone or do we keep quiet and lie when people ask how we made the sounds? i vote to keep it quiet.

ok ok a cz owners only cz1 micro-review.
take a cz3000 add a better keyboard (but still synth style), give it velocity sensitivity and mono-aftertouch. improve the cosmetics slightly- it is a casio, they probably think their g-shocks are subtle. keep the basic sound generating engine but this time let the osc, dcw and amp respond to velocity. you know how your cz gets to be real adult fun when the envelopes fly up and down, well with the cz1 you control the sweeps via your playing. add this to the programming of the envelopes and oh yes- sonicasiochaos. also you can copy the line 1 parameters to line 2, which speeds up the programming. i hate it when the actual programming gets in the way of sound creation. the sonics apart from the velocity are much the same. the envelopes are just as fast, which all danceheads like.
one bit of shock news i have just received is that kawai are stopping producing their k5000 series, this is from their uk distributer so it should be true. now these make cz's look like well behaved children. i will continue this discussion after i have called the bank.

I got a baby cz-101, no velocity, tiny liddle keys.. but I made this bass sound about a year ago and sampled it into my a3000, with a little bit of compression and distortion the thing writes tunes on it's own man!
fuckin - A! at 80 squids it's a bargain.

nice to hear other people enjoying the delights of casio ownership. i always find that emu samplers reproduce the bottom end better than rest. try playing some improvised bass runs on your cz-101 straight into your sequencer, edit and pull out the best bits. the fun you can have with the 101 is the short keyboard, so those 2 octave jumps are easy peasy. there is no excuse for not showing a large streak of madness in your own studio. the kawai k5k have been discontinued, i am trying to get hold of the rack version. i have psonic-sweat.
