About This Listing

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 of one of Casio's most interesting synths and only professional sampler!

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!

local pickup in asheville, nc

professionally packed with foam board + fully insured + shipped with UPS

i have a google drive documenting the synth's operation - please inquire for the link!
