The
Easy-VeeZee Web Site . | . Main Chat Page
Welcome to the Easy-VeeZee Chat Page. This page launched on 1st February 1999.
It's purpose is to facilitate discussion between the users of Casio's VZ range of musical synthesizers and to promote the exchange of information, hints and tips.
The synths in question are the Casio VZ-1,and also the VZ8/8M units (with which I am not particularly familar myself). Note that in some countries these synthesizers were badged Hohner instead of Casio, and had a different model number.
There will shortly (when I get around to it) be a full Web site associated with this chat page which will feature a VZ1/10M Patch Editor and Librarian currently being written by myself. I hope also to include patch files for download, particularly taking contributions of patches from yourselves.
It will also contain lots of hints, tips and other useful info. Any contributions gratefully received.
Using this chat page is simplicity itself. Please have a go...
Hi, I am also a VZ10M user though not so much these days. Still find it
quite difficult to use but still enjoy. Hope you get lots of response to the
site. BFN
Great idea... I'll look forward to the editor. Still have mine (VZ-10m).
it's used chiefly to make patches for my Casio PG-380, which I haven't been
doing much of lately.)
Great Idea!! A webworld of our very own!! The Casio VZ series of synths
are VERY POWERFUL sound making machines and I for one am going to visit this
site quite often!!
Mike Grijak
Thanks for the support. The Web site is beginning to build.
It is located at http://www.bramber.demon.co.uk/casio
Nothing much in the way of content yet, but I'm working on it.
Latest nes on the patch editor/librarian: I did a lot of work on it over the
weekend to make it more robust and a little friendlier. Op-patch editting is
fully implemented. On the voice patch front, line configuration is all done and
I've been working on the oscillator detuning settings. This is quite complicated
(just look in the manual under menu 1-02 to see what I mean).
I spent ages trying to figure out how to convert frequencies into harmonics -
its all based aroung logs to the base 2 (which Visual Basic doesn't do!) but I
sussed it in the end. My double-precision calculations are sometimes 1 tick out
on the fine tuning though compared to the VZ's own calculations. Near enough!
Latest version not available for download yet - I'm trying to do a proper
set-up kit for it.
Bye for now.
By the way, in case you haven't figured it out, this chat page will
automatically convert http references into links but no other HTML is supported (ie you
can't do bold text etc). This is for security reasons (we don't want people
posting dodgy pictures or buggy javascript etc.)
If you want to put a blank line in your posting you must put a double
carriage return. I have the power to erase particular messages if necessary and
I reserve the right to do so. If anyone spots anything offensive appearing on
this site please email me asap and I'll sort it out.
When the page reaches about 15k in size the messages are archived, to save
everybody's download time.
Any questions, please ask.
Steve.
Trivia question: Does anyone know what the difference is between the 5
different Saw-Tooth waveforms? Are they saw-up, saw-down, triangular or what?
The manual doesn't say. Anyone got an oscilloscope?
Thanks for putting up this site. The VZ has always been one of my
favorites, unfortunatley I got involved with my other synths and when I went to
sell my VZ-1, I remembered how great they sounded (still have my 10M) I use
MidiQuest's universal editor, which is a bit of a pain to use because you have
to intitialize the VZ to accept the data. But it allows you to be creative and
being able to store your patches is so convenient.I'm definitely going to use my
VZ a lot more. Keep working on that editor so that VZ users will be able to make
new sounds and keep these synths alive and working.
I've never used MidiQuest, but I've seen screen shots of it and it
doesn't look that easy to use. I guess there's a limit to what you can do with a
universal editor.
My VZ editor is being specifically designed for the VZ so includes clever
tricks like graphical drag-and-drop editting of keyboard split points and
cross-fade points.
There's not much I can do about having to set-up the VZ to accept the data
though - there's no remote control of that available. This means you still have
to (1)Enable Sys-ex (menu 3-04 ?), (2)Turn internal protection off (menu 3-01 ?)
and (3)Initialize the load/save (menu 3-03?). No way around that I'm afraid.
Once you've done that though, you only have to redo the last step to load/save
again. I think I right in saying that once you've done steps one and two the VZ
automatically transmits the tone/op data for the current patch everytime you
change patches, and can also respond to single patch transmissions in this way.
I shall have to investigate that further.
My VZ editor will support 5 banks in memory at once so I shall somehow
implement the transfer of patches between banks (virtually impossible without a
computer based editor). Someone also suggested that I should have a randomize
function that scrambles the data in a particular oscillator/voice/operation - as
a means of "inspiration". Nice idea, but needs some thought as to the range
within which certain parameters should be randomized. If you pick totally random
detuning for each oscillator it's going to sound dreadful 99.9999% of the time.
Anybody any ideas for other features?
I hope to have the latest version available for download within a week, but
that still won't include a full voice-edit implementation.
Regards,
Steve.
Ed, you say that you use your VZ10M to make patches for your Casio
PG-380. What is that exactly?
Steve, the PG-380 is the Casio MIDI/synth Guitar. Basically, an Ibanez
Stratocaster with a 6-voice VZ engine onboard and some additional electronics to
do the midi conversion (for midi out.) It accepts the vz ram/rom cards. To use
sounds from any synth for guitar (in my opinion) requires some amount of
tweaking (esp. attacks). Guitar controllers are different beasts from regular
guitars and keyboard controllers.
Too bad casio got out of the pro synth market. They made some fine
products...
Ed
friends: so happy to see those 'dinosaurs' supported! remember,they (we)
ruled the world for millions of years. great work and i'll send some patches.
bt
Hi! Good to see the VZ series being supported! I've had mine for several
years but never tried programming it until a couple of months back. A dedicated
editor is a great idea (I have used MidiQuest for editing, which although a lot
easier isn't a patch (hehe) on a dedicated piece of software). I'm still
exploring this monster machine...
BTW MidiQuest does have this handy randomise feature which creates new
patches. A lot of them are unuseable but some are very cool...
New version of VZpatch uploaded today at the EZVZ Web Site (use link at
top of this page, then click "Software"). A bit easier to use, some bugs
removed, and quite a bit added to the voice editting part. Still needs work on
Pitch Encelope, Pitch Key Follow, Rate Key Follow, Tremolo and Vibrato but then
that's it. The download now includes all the necessary VBX files to save people
scanning the Web, but VBRUN300.DLL is a separate download (same site) due to the
size of the file.
I've had lots of feedback and encouragement by email over the last few days,
with lots of offers of patches and other associated software (particularly Atari
ST) and cofiguration files for "generic" commercial editors. Might be a while
before these appear on the Web site as my spare time is concentrating on my PC
software at the moment, rather than on the Web site.
Any chance of one of you enterprising VZ-8 or PG-380 owners scanning a
manual and uploading/e-mailing it (asks poor pitiful dave who has both units and
doesn't have a clue on where to get a clue on how to program the things).
I tried to order the out of print VZ book from Amazon.com but no go.
Would just be nice to have a definitive menu map and a hint as to the effect
of the cascaded ocillator pairs. Yeah, I poke through all that stuff tweek a
parameter here and there and sometimes the sounds get better and sometimes they
don't change at all but my repeatability is about nil.
I'm not asking for much, huh?
Any help appreciated. DD
Dirty Dave....
PG-380 sound list: http://people.delphi.com/johnpollock/pgsounds.htm
Menu Map: http://machines.hyperreal.org/manufacturers/Casio/VZ/info/vz-10m.menu.table.cheat.sheet
If these wrap, you might have to type them in manually but they are a start.
Dave, if you poke around at the sites listed, there is some additional
info but not a whole lot.
Good luck...
I don't have a scanner.
Ed
Thanx fer the input all who replied.
Talk about synchronicity! I stopped by a used music gear store today and lo
and behold they had a VZ-10M WITH both manuals and the aftermarket BOOK! I did a
little horse swapping involving the VZ-8 and a little 4 track tape deck and am
now typing really fast so I can go PLAY with the new (and documented) toy!
Will post if a have a relations!
DD
I've made a note of those PG380 links and shall include them in the
Easy-VeeZee Web site when I get around to that bit. New version of VZpatch
uploaded today. Now displays ALL parameters but you can't yet edit pitch
envelope, pitch key follow or rate key follow parameters. I also fixed a couple
of minor bugs and added a facility to list all op patches that use a particular
voice (so you know which ops you'll mess up when you edit the voice!)
I wasn't aware of a book about the VZ synths. What's in it?
opps, that was supposed to be a "revelation" not a "relations".
Just call me Duh-ave!
DD
Does anyone know of any places to get VZ ROM or RAM cards? Do any of you
know what size/format of RAM card the VZ handles (in case I can find other
compatible cards)?
Dave, I too am interested in the book you mentioned. Who is it by and
what is in it???
Ed
Oh, congrats on your purchase....
As far as finding ram cards... I have seen a couple sites (and had them
bookmarked until a crash releived me of my bookmark file.) You just have to poke
around and do searches on various search engines to find the right place. They
are expensive. Good luck... post if you find them.
The connector on the RAM/ROM card looks common enough and I doubt the
card is particularly complicated inside (old technology), so I'm presently
wondering if it might be possible to make my own RAM card. That depends on
safely getting inside my present one though in order to see what's inside.....
risky.
Steve, Ed, Try this link:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0881888710/synthzone/002-5543991-1302266
Basically has a different (better than the manual, I suspect, but I haven't
had time to read either yet) perspective on the VZ series synths.
DD
I tried to order from Amazon 4-5 months ago but no joy.
Steve, I beleive I have the pinouts for the ram/rom socket for my
PG-380. I don't promise I'll get it to you immediately, but I swear I'll get to
it and type it up for you.
Dave, thanks for the book info...
Ed
Dave: thanks for the book info. I've just ordered one from Amazon, if
they can find one. I don't hold much hope though.
Ed: A pinout may well be sufficient information, thanks. Obviously if I ever
manage to make a working card I will post circuit/component details.
I've re-examined the RAM card and there's no easy way to get inside that
I can see. The plastic case appears to be "welded" shut. Also, there is very
little space around the connector - it's a tight fit - so a home-made effort
could be tricky.
Would any of you happen to have a tech manual or schematics for a VZ
(wishful thinking, I'm sure)? Casio isn't any help (they don't know or care
about 10 year old technology).
I've owned a VZ-1 for several years but I'm planning on selling it
simply because I never use it. Anyone have any idea how much they're worth these
days?
I found a place to get new ROM and RAM cards in the States. They have
the following inventory:
RA500 (RAM card) $70 RC110 (US collection) $80 RC120 (Tokio collection) $80
RC130 (European collection) $80
Their contact info is: Consumer Electronics 12425 Knoll Road Elm Grove, WI
53122 USA
If anyone want's to swop for my CZ1000, CZ5000 & VZ module feel free
to contact me !!!!!
Phil,
It seems the average price people have been asking in web classifieds around
here is around $300 (+-$100). Note that this is the ASKING price, and not
necessarily what they sold it for.
At last! The VZ is being appreciated. Here are some answers to some
quiestions in the archive:
The five different types of sawtooth appear to contain increasing amounts of
upper harmonics (from 1 to 5). This is similar to a low pass filter being
"opened" to put it crudely. I suppose Casio did that to combat the lack of a low
pass filter.
The best editor I've seen is MOTU Unisyn. Much easier to use, and a lot
slicker than MIDI Quest. Very expensive though.
I too am looking for that book:"Power Play Vz : The Essential Guide to
Practical Applications. (Casio : Vz-1, Va-10M,Vz-8M)" Steve De Furia, Joe
Scacciaferro. Those guys wrote a few other good synth books also.
There's a good Casio discussion at http://www/.http://www.the-gas-station.com/
It's in the "anything Analogue" section (don't ask) and it's called"The Casio
Hut!".
Hi! I have this old article of "Programming Secrets" for the CZ series.
of paticular interest to me was a way of creating ***envelope delay***
(Electronic Musician, March 1986 - I wonder if this is in thier free online
archives , maybe it's too old) I thought the envelopes on the CZ and VZ were
identical, but maybe not because I havn't been able to get it to work. Basically
you use of segments with variable rates and levels set to 01 which is "basically
inaudible". You must use at least two sets of rates and levels, and you can use
more for longer times.It gives an example of using 4 rates and
levels,(levels=01), the sum of the rates giving the delay time. Has anyone tried
this on the VZ and had it work? Thanks. -- Francis
New version of my VZ patch editor has been uploaded today, available on
the EZVZ web site (follow link at top of this page then go to "Software").
It is now fully functional with full Op and Voice editting. You can also now
load/save/upload/download individual voices rather than having to do the whole
bank at once. Further enhancements will follow (any ideas?).
I have also trawled the Web looking for VZ patches and the "Patches" link at
the above site will present you with every VZ patch I have found so far. I can
recommend the file "master.vz1" which is particularly good. The files have been
converted to the format suitable for my VZ patch editor. If anyone has any patch
files (single voices or whole banks) that they would like to share then please
send them to me. Either VZpatch format (preferably) or a normal sysex dump will
do, from which I can convert.
For info: If you wish to post a link to a web site on this page then
just type the URL, includding the h t t p : / / bit, and it is automatically
conmverted to a clickable link.
I'm slightly annoyed that Andrew Schlesiger's "Master Ram" collection is
freely available. I payed £30 for this about 4 years ago! It is very goood
though. There are also some VERY classy patches available at:
http://hem1.passagen.se/sequence/vzdemobank/intomilldemo.syx OR

Hi, any PG380 players out there, drop me a line,link etc.
willd.freeserve.co.uk
It is possible that some of the patches I have found on the net are not
legitimately available. Please, if anyone wishes to send me any patches for
inclusion on the EZVZ site then make sure that they are your own work or ones
which you know to be freely available.
I am intrigued by the PG380. A lot of people are mentioning it. Anyone
got a photo (gif/jpeg) they can send me or give me a web link to?
for the Casio midi guitars try http://people.delphi.com/johnpollock/casmgtr.htm
No pictures but as much info as I have seen.
Does anyone know where I can get a manual for my VZ-10M? I've done
serious damage to the presets but it'd sure be nice to understand what I was
doing :P
If anyone has one and would photocopy it, I'll gladly pay for it if it's
reasonable.
..ed.. @wits.end and beyond
I'm looking for a VZ-10M to use with MIDI guitar. It would be easy to
just use something like a Sound Canvas, but I like to tweek and create textures
and sounds (plus I like old gear). Thanks Keith
Hi, I recently got a VZ-1 with no manual. How is one able to edit the
parameters? I'm able to get into the menus, however, I can't get the cursor off
the blinking number. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks, A
Hey all... FWIW, there is at least one VZ synth at ebay now. Just for
those who are looking, I'm not selling but I saw them and figured someone here
might be interested.
www.ebay.com browse to misc, mus. inst, and then search.
Ed
In answer to dj222, push the menu button twice to get into edit mode.
Then use the data entry slider and cursor buttons to change the parameters.
Here's another question: I have a VZ-8m and just bought a VZ-1. My little
VZ-8m has three sound banks (Preset 1, Preset 2, Internal). To my dismay, my BIG
VZ-1 only seems to have one sound bank (Internal). Is this correct, or does the
VZ-1 also have 2 more Preset banks I can't find? If it is correct, that means
the VZ-8m has half the polyphony, but three times the memory of the VZ-1! Does
the VZ-10m only have one bank of sounds too?
Yep, VZ-1 has one bank of presets (64 tones, 64 Ops), and a polyphony of
16.
I tried to order the VZ Powerplay Book (out of print search) from Amazon
a few weeks back. I just got a reply. They're "still looking for it".
I have a vz10m forsale in immaculate condition in ths U.S. If
interested, please contact me.
Does anyone know where I could get a picture of the VZ10m to supply to people
on the internet so they know what it looks like?
Thanks, T
Like many other VZ-10M owners I have been longing for an effective
editor/librarian for PC for a long time. Well done Steve you're a very smart
cookie! (and will probably be knighted if you ever produce a Help File) I have
been experimenting all afternoon, and have two observations (probably due to my
ignorance). Firstly, having created a new folder to put all the downloaded files
in, I seem unable to put the .exe in it. Consequently, I currently have all the
individual files cluttering my Desktop. Any ideas? Secondly, after many attempts
at sending a bank of data from the PC to the VZ10-M, I found that I had to have
the VZ set to receive on MIDI Channel 1. (I normally use it dedicated to Ch 15
and I constantly got Error messages).
Hmmm.... I always have my VZ set to Midi Channel 1, which is what I
would have used when downloading those patches to my PC, so I'm wondering if
I've done something that means they only upload back on channel 1. Quite likely.
I think I need to add an option somewhere (ie on the Midi Device config page) to
set the MIDI output channel. This may be the cause of one or two other reports
I've had of somne people not being able to upload patches... Well spotted!
Oh, on your first point, I think I may have given the files a "Read
Only" status which could have the effect of stopping you from moving them.
Click the Right mouse Button over the file, select Properties, and make sure
Read Only is deselected. Hope that helps.
I just bought a VZ-10m yesterday. I can not seem to be able to figure
out how to save an edited patch. Any help would be appreciated. The manual is
very poor in its level of explanation. Are there any 3rd-party books out there
on the VZ-10m?
Book: "Power Play Vz : The Essential Guide to Practical Applications.
(Casio : Vz-1, Va-10M,Vz-8M)" by Steve De Furia, Joe Scacciaferro.
Unfortunately it's out of print and Amazon seem unable to find one for me.
Saving patches: That's difficult without the manual/machine in front of me.
Firstly, you need to turn Internal Protection Off, which is on menu 3 (submenu
01, I think). I think the most significant button after that is the one labeled
WRITE. I'm sure someone here can be more specific for you...
Checksum calculation:
I'm working on support for the VZ synths in SoundDiver. However, the checksum
format is not very well documented.
Does anybody know the formula Casio used here? Obviously the summing starts
after the Device ID since the checksum stays the same regardless of the selected
ID.
Thanks,
Malte
Checksum: Yes, that one is tricky - it's not documented anywhere and
CAsio never answered any of mny letters, so I worked it out for myself:
There is a checksum on the end of every block of voice patch data (336 bytes)
and on the end of every block of Op patch data (100 bytes).
To get the checksum, add up every byte in that block, take the last seven
bits (ie MOD 128) then subtract the answer from 128 to get your final checksum
value.
Easy !
I should have mentioned that there are no other checksums other than the
one on the end of every block of data.
Don't forget that all data bytes, and the checksum, are transmitted as two
four bit nibbles and that the HIGH order data is transmitted first and NOT the
Low order data as mentioned in the SysEx manual page 8 (Gotcha!)
EVERYONE: A new version of my VZ patch editor has just been uploaded. I've
fixed the "MIDI channel 1 only" problem and have added a "keyboard bar". PLay
notes with the mouse - pitch runs left to right and volume high at top, low at
bottom.
I have also added a new set of Patches sent to me by Fred Fee. Thanks Fred.
They are VERY good, and include a particularly good piano sound (difficult at
the best of times). All available from the EasyVeeZee web site (link at top of
this page). Share and Enjoy.
The new patches are the file FREDS.VZ1, in case that isn't obvious. Oh
yes, I've also added an "Auto transmit" feature to the software which transmits
the current voice to the VZ synth every time you change voice in the software.
Hi again Steve Sorry to say that I can't seem to get you "new" version
to send or receive. I don't know if it's me, but I cannot see any difference in
appearance from the previous one. (I've checked the dates of the files to ensure
I'm using the most recent.) When I send data from the computer I get an "error"
on the VZ, and if I try to send data from the VZ to the computer I get "A
checksum failed during tone number 1" Regards Keith Dear
Hmmm... You know you've got the right version if there is a box on the
Midi Device config page that lates you choose the Midi output/input channel. At
the moment they must be the same. I know some people, particularly outside of
the UK, have a problem with the Program file being cached somewhere en-route, to
keep intercontinental bandwidth down. The latest version appears eventually, or
alternatively you can force a load of the new version by using this link which
has a different file name (same program) (136K bytes):

I'm getting as little embarrased about this! Thankyou for you previous
advice. Having downloaded your alternative, I did then get the Midi Channel
selector,- but when I tried to send data it resulted in "An error has occured"
message. This gave me the option to "Close" or "Ignore", however it will not let
me ignore. Close/Details tells me "VZpatch caused a general protection fault in
module VBRUN300.DLL at 0023:000007aa" -what ever that means! I have cleaned out
all VZ related files and then downloaded the all relavant files (again) and now
the program refuses to run at all.
Is it just me?
Keith (O-Dear!)
Keith, I'm puzzled. I know of several people running it successfully and
I myself have tried it on Windows 3.1, 3.11, 95 and 98. I haven't tried Windows
NT though. I don't suppose you're using NT are you?
It might be worth doing a Find File on VBRUN300.DLL because you may find that
you have multiple copies lurking on your machine and you may have a corrupted
one. Also, you might have multiple copies of one of the .VBX files, possibly one
from a more recent version of Visual Basic (mine is an old version 3.0
professional). They're most likely to be in c:/windows/system/ If you find such
files don't delete them because you may have other software using them, but
temporarily rename them or move them somewhere where the operating system can't
find them easily (ie in a brand new directory), then copy my distributed vesion
of vbrun300.dll and all my .vbx files to c:/windows/system. Also, delete
vzpatch.ini from c:/windows which is generated by my program - it will build
another one itself.
If all that doesn't work them you've beaten me and will need "professional"
help.
Hi Steve. Your helpful suggestions were gratefully received, but even
though I followed you to the letter, the "new" program still refuses to run.
However, I tried an experiment this evening, and thought you may like to know
the outcome! 1. I removed all trace of the VZ files from my PC, and then
re-loaded the previous version to my Desktop. (I had backed up all the files to
my writable CD and saved them in a folder "VZ old"). 2. Running from the Desktop
- even without installing certain files to the "System" dir. I clicked on the
.exe file and the program ran perfectly as before. 3. I downloaded the "new"
once more, extracted them and put them in a folder on my Desktop (VZ new). 4. I
clicked on the "new" .exe, and as I discovered last time, the program would not
run - getting an error message! I then clicked on the "old" exe. once more, and
this time the "old" one would not run either! - getting the same error message.
5. I then deleted all the "new" files in my "new" folder to find that the "old"
version again ran perfectly! Well, could you follow that? There is certainly
something amiss with the new version and wonder if I'm the only one in the world
having problems. Thanks again for your efforts. I shall use the "old" version
for now. Keith
Hello Steve,
Your Checksum-HowTo (13th April) doesn't work in one case. If the sum of all
bytes in the block calculated as discribed results in zero and you subtract this
from 128 the 8th bit is still set.
By the way Yamaha uses the same method for their DX-synths.
Greetings, Michael
Michael, you are of course correct - following that scheme there is 1
chance in 128 that you could produce the wrong answer. It is very likely that
the Casio will ignore the top bit anyway, which will therefore still give the
correct answer of zero, but I will re-check the code in my VZ editor programme
to make sure that I've done it right.
Question to all VZ owners: If I'm naming a patch on my VZ-1 I can only
use the characters A-Z (capitals only), 0-9, space, dash (-), slash (/) and dot
(.) I understand that the VZ-8M allows lower case and other punctuation such as
pling (!) and hash (#) but communication I have received from elsewhere suggests
that some VZ-1's support these characters too. Is there more than one version on
the VZ-1 and can anyone positively confirm for me that their VZ-1 supports these
other characters? Thanx.
Keith: From what you say it certainly seems to prove that there is
something in the new version that messes your system up - that seems pretty
conclusive. The changes from the old to the new version were fairly minor ones
though and certainly didn't involve anything "clever" that would affect the
running of other programs in any way. I'm still puzzled. Obviosuly it works fine
for me else I wouldn't have released it.
Has anybody else out there had a similar experience to Keith?
Another set of patches (voice only, Ops blanked) just uploaded to the
EasyVeeZee site. Location is http://www.bramber.demon.co.uk/casio/patches/free-vz1.vz1
Anybody else have some that they would like to share?
Sorry, if you tried that link since last night it was broken (file
didn't upload properly). It's okay now.
Oh yes, and don't forget tp hold down <Shift> when clicking the
link if you want to save the file rather than view lots of binary junk.
Hi, Is there any chance that the free VZ patches on the Easy VeeZee site
could also be posted as raw sysex files or perhaps midi files? I'm using a Mac
for my MIDI and digital audio and would love to try out some of the patches.
thanks, --js
Feel free to check out my VZ sounds. You'll find them here:
http://hem1.passagen.se/sequence/ --> click your way to
"sounds".
Cheers / Patrick, Sweden
Yes, I can probably do that at some point. I think I've got some
software somewhere that I can use to download SYX from my VZ1. You might have to
give me a week or two to do them though.
Patrick, thanks for the pointer. I have converted the
IntoNextMillenium.mid file to my .VZ1 format and it is available on the
EasyVeeZee Web site, under "Patches" (link at top of this page).
Hi Steve;
thanks for the description of the checksum calculation. VZ support in
SoundDiver is forthcoming!
However, there are other things I'd like to know:
I only have MIDI docs for the VZ-1/VZ-10M. Is it true that one cannot request
the memory contents from the outside?
To me it looks like I always would have to send them manually from the VZ.
The owners manual of the VZ-8M has a very short section on SysEx which
mentions requests, though. Can anybody give insights here?
Thanks.
Hi everyone;
the mentioned checksum problem (sum is zero; 128 - sum is 128) actually
happens with one of the factory patches: OpMem B-8 "DIGIVOICES".
So always "hide" to upper bit of the final checksum.
Lowercase letters confirmation:
My VZ-1 accepts them at least for the operation memories (apparently all
ASCII characters can be used). I'll check for the Tones later today.
Lowercase: Mine definitely doesn't accept them, they just appear as
blanks when I uploaded a mixed-case patch file that someone sent me. I
definitely have a different software/hardware version to some other people it
seems.
Requesting patch dump: I have found no way of requesting a patch dump via
MIDI. The manual gives no hint of it being possible. It is a shame, that is.
Hows it going? I just bought an MG510 Midi Guitar and VZ-8M synth. I
need the manual(s)! (VZ-8M is most important.) Can anybody help me? If you can,
just post a new message. (I can't get into my e-mail for some stupid reason.)
Any help is greatly appreciated!!! Thanx!
P.S.
The VZ-8M has some awsome synth sounds for a 10 year old timer! I guess newer
is not always the best.
I have one VZ RAM card for sale at £10.
Email:- dwmusic@enta.net
Lowercase: As I said it works for the Operation Memories; however I
checked and it doesn't work for the Tones. Bummer.
Meanwhile I found the VZ-8M MIDI manual and indeed the VZ-8M allows single
requests. It also has a slightly different format for the Operation memories.

Hi Steve,
I can't start your VZ Editor (April-Version) with Windows NT4. Starting the
Program leads to a message-box 'file not found: MMSYSTEM' [close]
February-Version workes fine.
Even starting it with Win 3.11 doesn't work. The VZ gets defect data.
So far, Michael
Hi, I have bought a vz-1 a couple of days ago, unfortunately without
manuals. So I have a few questions: 1. How can I edit the sounds in the
operation memory? 2. What should happen if I push the "Display"-button? Thanks
in advance! Bye Holger
Hi Holger,
1. Use Menu 2 for Operation-Data (wheels, split-points and other keyboard
specific stuff)
2. Display-Buttons and Data-Entry slider changes contrast of display.
bye, Michael
Just like a few people on here, I just got a casio VZ-8M and would like
to obtain a copy of the owner's manual(s). Can anyone help?? Thanks. Tobe
Three Casio VZ ROM cards for sale. RC-110 (US Collection), RC-120 (Tokio
Collection), RC-150 (Wonder Collection). £ 10 each.
I heard somewhere that the VZ-8M, unlike the VZ1 and VZ10-M, have
panning! Can someone confirm this? This is just a plain static pan, i.e.,
without LFO? Besides having 8 voices instead of 16,(and it being 1 rack space
with a tiny display) are there any other differences in features? Has anyone
ever had a chance to compare the sysex docs directly? I assume they're 99% the
same, but someone here also said that there was a command for dumping single
voices. Anyone here have experience with Unisyn's editor and what that has to
say about differences between the 8M and the 1/10M? Is it a decent editor?
Someone here also said they were creating an adaptation for Soundiver - any
further progress? Thanks for any info! --- Francis
HI Every one
I just found this Casio VZ chat forum. I Have a very sick PG380 Guitar Synth
which I would love to fix. Does any one have the factory repair manual? I would
gladly pay for a copy. or any info on who to talk too about getting it fixed?
Thankx Joseph
How can I get Casio VZ-1 manual? I bought it from bankrupt´s estate, and
there was no manual with it. And how can I get ROM-cards??? Sorry that my

Hello friends, all of you are into VZ/CZ stuff which makes us all practically
long lost brethren. I'm a mac 68K guy with a VZ-10M and I used to have a CZ-5000
and a CZ-101. I've dabbled with the CZ-5000 enough to learn how to edit patches
using HyperMIDI with info from the Drum Music Server site
(drum.warwick.ac.uk/music/drum/synths/czsysex.html). It has some errors in it,
but is the best resource yet. If anyone has some questions about CZ's or VZ's
I'd be glad to *TRY* to help. I don't know nearly as much as the grand creator
of this cool site, but I like the active ideas going on here. My website is
under long-term construction too:
www.mindspring.com/~dodecagon
Anyhow, if we all email each other, we can solve all of these problems,
questions. WE SHALL ALL RULE AS VZ KINGS (and, uh Queens?)
If you want new cool VZ sounds, don't miss my patches. Check here: http://hem1.passagen.se/sequence - and hey - they're free! Just
click on the banners a few times, and I'll survive, too.
Wanted: VZ1 EDITOR FOR POWERPC/MACINTOSH. Anyone has a URL? Please mail
me on the above address. Peace, RVe
hello, the backlighting on my VZ10M has broken so that it is too dim to
see the characters. is there a source for parts or a known way to fix this? i
miss this synth! please email me directly if you've time. thanks very much -
cheers, mic.
Has anyone ever noticed how, in the same module, if one line is phase
modulating the other internal to that module, the carrier goes automatically to
the same harmonic as the modulator?
I was also wondering if anyone has ever figured out the frequency modulation
index of the VZ series compared to the Yamaha 6-op (DX7) or 4-op (TX81Z)
machines. I'm working on a converter to translate patches back and forth,
although there would probably still be some tweaking involved. I've been working
and approximating by ear, and I don't have an oscilloscope, so any input by
someone more in the know than me would be appreciated!

How to dump patches with Midiex??? It doesn't work; always when I try to
use it, comes a message "MPU failed to initialize. Turn your computer off to

Hey all... I've been busier than you could imagine.
Does anyone out there have a VZ1 they'd be willing to trade for a VZ10m and a
few bucks (like $50)? I have a 10m that I bought new (many years ago) and would
rather have the keyboard version.
The 10m is in great shape and I'd like to find a 1 in good shape.

Hi,
I have problems with the Sounddiver patch editor for the VZ-1, fixed
frequency don't work, anyone had similar problems ? I also have problems when I
make sysex communication with cables longer then 5 or 6 meters, I always get a
checksum error... I bought that VZ-1 used, about 8 weeks ago, is this a normal
behaviour of that synth...
thanx for answering ! Summa
Hi I just found this site! Cool! I also have a VZ1 and no manual, though
I do have a manual for the Vz10m, which I also have. My problem is that I cant
get Sound diver to scan my VZs. Any suggestions? **Also, I am wondering what
type pedal I can use for the "Foot VR"?**What type of pedal do I need for the
"foot volume"?**How about for the "program number"? And can I just increment by
1 or what?**Also,I need a manual. Thanks in advance!
Hi I have a VZ-1 which does not want to communicate with my soundblaster
card or vice versa,any views on this problem would be welcome.
I couldn't beleive my eyes when I found this site! Does anyone know
where I can find a card for the VZ-1? I bought the keyboard a couple of years
ago but have been unable to find any accessories.
Thanks, Dudley C. NY
HELLO? Man this is a dead forum! C'mon people, lets get some dialog
going! I dont have any answers for your questions, or else Id post them! These
synths are cool! There are a few really cool patches that came with it, but so
far I havent been able to get the type sounds I want out of it. I like the
patches with things like aftertouch controlled filters, more analog fat sounding
patches where you can make it growl. Continuous midi controllers doing all sorts
of crazy shit. I want to get the pedals going, I guess I'll have to try them
myself by trial and error, and report back to you all, since I dont have the
manual.So what kind of music do you people like? Is there anybody out there???
Hi Bignose,
it seems most of the dialogs go through mail and I don't have a Manual for my
VZ-1 either, but I have one for my CZ-1 and once had the FZ-1 of a friend for
some weeks, so I was able to solve most of the problems easely... Btw... the
VZ-1 don't have filters (it works more with a DX7 like soundsynthesis but since
you also have more complex waveforms then a sinus, you also can make warmer
sounds...) If you want fat sounds, you should at least buy a chorus or multi fx
device, that helps a lot... but the VZ-1 is more a master of digitaly crystal
clear or screaming sounds, filter sweeps can only be emulated...
Good luck ! Summa
Hi Summa! Gee, there IS life on the VZ planet! Thanks for the idea! I
have a fz1 and I have the manual. I bet some things are the same, like maybe
what type pedals it takes, etc. I also have a VZ10m manual. But I hate trying to
figure things out via manual anyway! I wish I could get a PC editor librarian to
work satisfactorily. I tried Xor for the Atari ST, in the past, but the sounds I
made were awful. I use the vz 1 as my main midi controller for all my midi gear.
I reconfigured my workspace the other day, and I discovered that hey, there are
a few pedal inputs on the back! I want to be able to change parameters while I
play with both hands. Soon I will experiment until I figure it out. Stay tuned,
and remember, its not how big your nose is, but how you use it!
Hi Mr. Bignose,
the FZ-1 has quite nice filters, so you should use this one for filter
modulation... anyway I'm not sure if those old synths are able to change filters
on controller message, but you could use the velocity instead and control the
volume with volume controler messages most of the synth sounds don't need to
have a real velocity, another possible solution is to make sounds with different
velocities and switch between those sounds... Have you tried the free PC VZ
Sound Editor you can download on this page ?
Summa
I bought a VZ8m a while ago and have had lots of fun with it till today,
I powered it up, hit a key and noticed that this weird chugga-chugga chopper
sound came out, nothing more, the same for all patches at all registers. When I
first got it I had the same problem but a reset quickly returned the default
factory patches. I've lost my manuals since then and can't do a reset... what is
the method to do this? What do you ppl think it might be? a failing battery? if
so can they be replaced?
Could be a battery problem. I seem to recall the VZ1 manual mentioned
that it had a finite life (probably a Lithium battery). Something like about 5
or 6 years I imagine. Can almost certainly be replaced, but you'll need a
screwdriver and probably a soldering iron too. Finding the right sort of battery
shouldn't be too difficult as long as you can work out the voltage and polarity
of the existing one. Anybody had to do this yet?
I recently opened up my VZ-1, it's a lithium Batterie inside to uphold
the memory, once you found it, it should be ease to replace it, as long as you
have basic knowledge about soldering... To reset a VZ-1 (as well as a CZ-1) hold
the initialize button and turn the instrument on, I hope it's the same with you
VZ8m... If it's not the Batterie, and you VZ8 hangs up from time to time, it
could be the background display light, I had at least about the same problem
with my CZ-1 and it's nearly the same, the VZ one is just a bit bigger, it
caused shurtcuts, so I had to use a hot plastik glue (I don't know the english
word for it) to isolate it from the chassis and that worked fine for the last 10
years... Good luck !
Hi does anybody know, where i can find a manual for the VZ10m? also i
need to know, how to get the patches into sounddiver (win)
thanks
Hi All, If anyone is interested, I have a VZ10-M on auction at http://www.digibid.com/auctions/items/7127.htm
hi Vilip, You seem to have the same problem I had today - my solution
was to lower the MIDI-channel below 10 ... Apparently VZ-Patch won't work
correctly with a channel set above 9. good luck now
Those interested in analog type sounds on the VZ10M should get to know
the CZ-series first... get the idea about morphing from complex waves to sine
waves... this is what phase distortion synthesis does to emmulate analog... next
go back to your VZ and consider the phase modulation functions and create
patches that morph from complex waves to sine waves... analog sounds can be
made, but it's tricky... it depends on using one oscillator as a phase distorter
of another... this way, the amplitude envelope of one becomes a filter
envelope... good luck.
Thanks for the info, Labrat! I know its possible to create analog type
sounds, because a couple of the factory ones were fat as hell! Like "Oh No" is
one that comes to mind............Thanks again, Ill try your suggestion in the
near future.
Hey all, I have a VZ1 but I lost the sound card a few years back and I
cant find it anywhere in stores, online or even from the factory. IF anyone has
an extra card or knows where I can get one please let me know.
thanks, scott leader austin, tx
Hello Steve, I last wrote April 18th, in a previous millennium, to
explain my difficulties in using your (revised) VZ-10M librarian. I still find
it doesn't work - although the first one did. Are there any further developments
in the pipeline? Many thanks, Keith
Does anyone have a VZ10m or Hohner HS2/e they want to sell?
If so, let me know.
Hi Labrat,
I do have a CZ-1 and I made some hundred sounds with it, some good fat bass
sounds too. Knowing how to use the CZ won't help to undestand creating new
sounds on the VZ Synths, at least to emulate filters, since you can use the DCWs
of the CZ-1 nearly like analog filter, the only difference is, that the
decreasing of the DCW causes the sound to get a sinus and on filters only loses
the overtones above the filter frequency, but at the end, a filter sweap sounds
nearly the same. Using the phase disortion on the VZ synths can cause filter
like sound, but those sound quite digital, have nothing to do with analog
filters, it's more FM like. The best way to emulate analog filter with the VZ
is, on my opinion, to use the oszilators like additive sound sources, and fade
between overtone rich and overtone poor oscilators, it's not easy with
envelopes, the Prophet VS method would be easier, but possible, since you have 8
osc., you can couple them to create complex waveforms and stack some of them and
fade between them.
But having some knowledge about ring modulation of the CZ, may help to create
interesting VZ sounds.
