I've just bought these very TWO synths :)

Do they have the same sound? Or a little different? Which one is better? Does 470 have any advantages? Thnx ;)

Demo of the CASIO CZ-1, no overdubs. Every sound is a single patch, sometimes layered with itself. Multistage-Env/Velocity sometimes morphs the sounds.

CASIO CZ1 Synthesizer Demo (solo track)

Casio CZ - Bell and Lead
Two samples in a row … beautiful bell sound and simple lead line. Casio PD (Phase Distortion) – high quality sounds!

Casio CZ - Annoying Sequence
This is an annoying sequence that sounds very “analog”. Casio CZ-1000 driven by external midi sequencer. Peak notes added in realtime.

Casio CZ - Mix 1
Casio CZ-1000 and GEM S3.

Casio CZ - Mix 2
Casio CZ-1000 (noise / ring modulation sound) and Roland JD-800 (pad).

Casio CZ 1000 - Mix 1

Casiotone MT-400V, Yamaha PSS-480

(Sadly I think I lost the original multitrack recordings for this one. But I'll most definitely recreate the sounds one way or another somepoint. I have a few of the original samples somewhere.)

A quick test improv in front of a relatively rare 1981 Teisco SX-400 analog polysynth shortly after overhaul and final tuning at Hideaway Studio.  The SX-400 sported 4 discrete VCOs and 4 transistor ladder VCFs based on the Minimoog along with hardware based EGs and a Solina style triple chorus ensemble which is quite an unusual combination for a VCO based synth making for some great string timbres!!

The bass drone is courtesy of a 1973 Minimoog.

I created this great patch on my cz-3000, and this melody came up out of it. The sad part is, my CZ isn't saving patches at the moment, so I quickly recorded this. This is all that remains.
