Beautiful production overall. Keyboard sweet and enjoyable, chassis mtallique weight! Irrprochable finish. This is a keyboard built to last!
Three assignable modulation wheels. thank you for the words!
Complte standard connectors but with a clever little cross to cut the sending and reception noon. The polyphony is that of his era. Limit 16 channels but is it really ncessaire to expect so much given that the multitimbralit8 channels) is not the purpose of this instrument. No effects intgrs.Ce not constitute a default for a home studio that possde of the name. Your effects will certainly be of better quality than those embedded in machines of this era. There are soft to tidion. Freeware for PC and Atari VZ rider.

UTILIZATION

A new synthse, news-making head. The edition of the interactive phase distortion is not at all like that Submitted on CZ SERIES! We must spend time ... a lot of time trying to matriser sounds crs. The central display is blue graphic and help the edition cel. The menus are clear enough but you have to press the play button! Often you get a chance .. .. by rsultat as on many machines by the way! VZ1 but has potential!
The manual is complet.Le hard part is done, will integrate all the possibilities offered by this synthse your account! To be honnte, I did not find the ease and simplicity edition of the CZ.

SOUNDS

Casio trs sound ..! But we do not find the grain of the CZ. The offer sounds VZ1 own trs, trs pais both ends and in the pads. Low standards, distorted leads, FM bells, strings and brilliant sound typical digital synthse trsars and scrolls. The quality is to go, no breath and a dynamic dzynguer your HP! Obviously, no sounds of acoustic piano and mandolin, is a synthtiseur, and not a real player PCM Exceeds after two years! the keyboard is dynamic and sensitive aftertouch which is very well peru sonore.De by the engine over the wheels modulations provide a useful expressiveness supplmentaire rev sounds sometimes a little too clean. Ah! if there were pots on this machine! (And many others!).
Short! The VZ1 produces unique sound! It's a matter of taste.
Note that CASIO offers a SERIES of sound cards out of the machine. One card silent book in the package.

OVERALL OPINION

Bought in 1991, I used the keyboard matre. I almost sold, but APRS reflection, I care! It tural possde a personality and a synth is a quality indniable.
Too bad it did not have casio synth in France inttt the public. Unfortunately, it does marketed far too late. APRS dferlante the DX7 with which it shares the innovative synthse cot, he does noy in the wave of machines based PCM multi effects and rowdy public adulation of the end of this century.
If you are looking for new sounds coming out of the ordinary interest to you this rare machine that Exceeds 500 in the Figure occasion. You will tonns of its sonic possibilities
