FZ-1

“Casio FZ-1 in great cosmetic + functional shape!

some scuffs here and there and small cluster of scratches along the bottom left (pic coming soon), overall a great example

screen contrast, original backlight, and floppy drive function perfectly

an intuitive sampler with a very unique and powerful digitally controlled analog filter, 8 stage envelopes for filter and amp (like the CZ series), and a built in synth engine

the filter distorts and saturates beautifully, reminiscent of Curtis filters found in synths like the Akai AX60 or Sequential Six Trak, but with it’s own special character.

there are mic and line inputs for easy recording of samples, (i like to plug a guitar direct in, sing into it, play a reverb’d out classic, loop it, and bliss out) loop points for precise chopping of samples (truncate samples down to waveforms)

a very special synth! from hi fi sample playback to warbling pads (it’s got a random LFO), processed instruments, experimental excursions, anything you can dream up!”

“CASIO FZ-1 with matching CASIO volume pedal and re-printed manual

Fully operational – with the exception of the LCD backlight ( which is a $25 part on ebay )

Includes the Casio 1 Meg memory expander board (MB-10). This board doubles the sample memory of an FZ-1 sampler to the maximum of 2 Meg ( see photo )

Disk drive functions and formats ( see photo’s ) includes 3 blanks disks.

Cosmetics are not the greatest and it has dent ( no effect on what is inside ) on the top, so I called the condition good.

All keys , bender and mod wheel work

* Reminder, when you boot use the LCD button and slider to get best LCD resolution.

Inside is clean in general with a little rust on the inside case by the heat sink ( photo’s )

All the pre-set waveforms produce sound, it does not come with pre-sets.
