=E2=80=9CI'm also checking out the VZ-1/10M now too.
Didn't know the CZ-1 had a rackmount sequel.=E2=80=9D

Hi Brent. The CZ1 is definitely the CZ to get as it=E2=80=99s the only one i=
n the range that allows you to you velocity and after touch to things like W=
ave, giving you real time control. It=E2=80=99s almost like having a Cutoff a=
nd Res knobs plus lots more whacky stuff.

Btw, the VZ is not a rack CZ synth and has little in common.
