How to program the Casio CZ Series from the CZ-101 to the CZ-1
https://hyperfollow.com/scififunk/

A Step-by-step tutorial for programming the Casio CZ Series of Vintage Synthesizers. I explain what each Pot and Slider does on the synthesizer and how they interact to create sound.

This series demonstrates how the synth works at a high level, enough to get you making sounds. For an in-depth look at programming the Synth as a whole. Please refer to my advanced programming series.

The Casio CZ-101 was my very first poly synth bought way back in 1985.

Please see my other tutorials where I explain similar principles on other Vintage synths like-
ROLAND SH-101
CASIO CZ-101/1000/3000/5000/1
PROTEUS 2000
ROLAND SVC-350 Vocoder

Also, drum machines like
EMU SP-12
ROLAND TR-808

Where I can't get access to the kit be sure I have it in Virtual format, and I'll explain all there. Synths that are just too expensive can be covered there like
ELKA SYNTHEX
SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS PROPHET 5
OBERHIEM MATRIX 12
EMU EMULATOR 2
PPG WAVE
OSCAR
I've programmed them all.
