These are so basic features that should have been in place upon release.They could have really put this workstation over the top by just adding basic featues like,having the Pads ability to select/mute tracks.The ability to use the Pattern Sequencer like a traditional Sequencer with option of turning off chord feature so i can hear Tracks playback without pressing the lower keys.I can go on and on but still a nice Machine.

It would be great if the MZ500 had an UNDO function in the Midi recorder.The event editor take's too long when i just want to delete an overdub from the System Track.

I was looking at the FA long before i purchased the Casio MZ500.I think the Casio sounds are more fresher and new.The casio in my opinion has more to offer if you are utilizing most of the machine.I would make my first decision on the Sound though.

Thanks.I was just trying to recall the DSP Compressor setting that i set for the ( Sampling set ) to make it louder when i hit the Pad.I was able to set it the way i wanted by using the Effect setting & Mixer settings for that channel but could not properly recall it when saving to a Registration.I will try your method.

I am trying to save the DSP1 and DSP2 Effect settings to a Registration.I do notice some DSP Effects do change when I change a Registration.How do I store and recall an Effect DSP?The Store button don't seem to work when I store a Registration as usual.Not sure if it needs to be saved another way?

I had music lessons in school and read tons of books back in the day.I just used that as the basic building blocks to find my own way around the Keyboard.I mostly play by ear.

It would be great if that feature could be turned off so we can use it as a traditional Pattern Sequencer.

Yes.You do have to press the lower keys to start the background chords though.

Thanks

Thanks.Is there a lot of content for the MZ?

Does this store all user content in a folder including samples songs etc.?

Thanks all for that info.

Does the MZX only Sample in Mono?I sampled a panning Sample and it only played back in Mono.

Is there any way to save a Sample Set with a Pad Bank?.if I have a Midi Sequence using Set C I have to manually make sure the User Sampling Set A,B,C,Set is correctly.It does not save with the Song or Bank?

Looking for a shortcut to start @ a certain measure when Recording or Playing without having to increment up eveytime i start over.A Locate function would be the solution if possible?
