I read somewhere that the main reason for this strange terminology was that Yamaha had patented the principle behind FM synthesis, which relies on the. Calls a 2 operator pair a 'line', and when 4 operators are connected as a chain, then 2 lines 'ring modulate' each other.

There are a possible two oscillators going at once, with possible ring modulation, detune, etc. DCW"wave shape" = filter, and amplitude) as part of what Casio called"Phase Distortion" synthesis, which is said to be their way of piggy-backing on the then-popular Yamaha DX series. CONCERNING THIS MODEL: This synthesizer starts off with 8 waveforms that are manipulated through a set of three envelopes(pitch. Its literally the third link in the results for cz-101 service manual.CASIO CZ-101"Cosmo" synthesizer Very good playing condition. It has its share of scratches(see pictures) but it has been tested and everything works as it should.Casio CZ101 CZ1000 memory cartridge 4banks/64patches (4x RA3 or 1x RA5 RA6 eq.).
More to help make up for the absence of real analog filtering. These last types are meant. The waveforms themselves are a mix of standard and strange: alongside saw, square, and narrow pulse waves, there is a sine-with-notch, a sort of saw+square wave, and three"resonance" waves.
Editing is done with buttons and a small lcd. The resulting tone is not too far from a real analog resonant filtering effect, especially if you program the DCW envelope for some movement, when the effect is similar to tweaking the cut-off knob on a VCF. See photo for oscilloscope image of this combo.
That said, there are only two oscillators(max) to worry about atFor sale is a used Casio CZ-101 keyboard synthesizer. For example, there is no separate"filter" control that has a universal effect upon a tone instead, you have to program the stages(up to eight) of the"wave shape" envelope for level and"rate" =rate of change from previous stage's level to current stage's level) This is, again, pretty similar to the Yamaha DX style of doing things. Most of the editing is done with the envelopes. The editing style is thus similar to what you find on a Kawai SX-210, although the sounds are nothing alike.
The keyboard dates back to around 1985 so there is normal wear and tear for something that is over 25 years old. It comes with the Casio padded hard shell case not usually found with this model synthesizer. But is missing battery door.
Gets super warm bass sounds and cutting lead sounds heard on countless records in the 1980's. Manual and patch lists are easily found on the web. It does not come with a power supply, it will run on batteries, or any generic power supply will work.
Released in November 1984. Approximately 68,500 were manufactured. The CZ-101 was the first and best-selling synthesizer in this line.
The CZ-101 is a digital synth and although the programming is somewhat limited there are plenty of analog-like traits and sounds to interest most anybody. Fantastic sounds! Here is a video of the CZ 101 Here are specs on the CZ 101: From Casio: This is the pea-size version of the CZ-1000 with a mini-keyboard. Instead of full sized keys, the CZ-101 used miniature keys.You are bidding on 1985 Casio CZ-101 Portable Synthesizer I love this piece but haven't been using it in the last 10 years and am moving so getting rid of some gear! Comes with a cover and adaptor. The CZ-101 only had 49 keys(4 octaves from C to C) instead of the 61 keys most synthesizers had. In order to keep the price low, several compromises were made.
It can create wild new sounds, notably percussive sounds. More modify digital waveforms(sine waves) to create various sounds. PD is Casio's own take on digital synthesis from the mid-eighties and is found in all of their CZ series. And they're much more affordable. The sounds are very similar to the Yamaha DX synthesizers.
Another 8-stage envelope section in the DCW is used to modify the Phase Angle over time(like filtering) Finally the DCA amplifier also has an 8-stage envelope to modify the volume of sounds over time. The first is used to modify the DCO pitches over time. Three sets of 8-stage envelope sections are used to modulate your sounds extensively. The CZ-101 is no toy although it can be considered very entry level.

It has a good 8-stage envelope design and uses Phase Distortion(PD) synthesis. 16 user, 16 more via external cartridge, Control- MIDI, DESCRIPTION The CZ-101 is a digital synth there are plenty of analog-like traits and sounds to interest most anybody.

For further tweaking the CZ-101 employs some surprisingly analog effects. Another 8-stage envelope section in the DCW is used to modify the Phase Angle over time(like filtering) Finally the DCA amplifier also has an 8-stage envelope to modify the volume of sounds over time. The first is used to modify the DCO pitches over time.
This is a very cool and somewhat rare synth. Built-in no1st owner! I've had this Casio CZ-101 since it was new back in 1985. Double up on the oscillators with 4-note polyphony. Portamento adds that classic glide effect from one note to the next. Square, ramp up or down waveforms as well as rate, depth and delay settings.

But it's not too easy to program if you don't know much about waveform theory and design. It can create wild new sounds, notably percussive sounds. You basically modify digital waveforms(sine waves) to create various sounds. PD is Casio's own take on digital synthesis from the mid-eighties and is found in all of their CZ series.
