PD - PHASE DISTORTION process periodically distorts the phase angle of the oscillator altering the harmonic content, consequently creating new rich waveforms (8 to be precise). Mixed with noise (no gain) or ring-modulated together with a fixed depth. A basic patch is composed by 1 or 2 DCO (or LINES) which are detunable digital sinewave-cosine oscillators (digital waveform stored in ROM probably IC MB83256pn26) processed by logic mathematical operations. VOICE system and 8 bits CPU UPD-7811G-120 manages up to 8 voices polyphony based on PD synthesis. Power supply 6 X 1.5 V batteries or an external power supply type DC 9V negative center polarity. On the left side there is a single pitch wheel. The main panel features a LCD 16 x 2 lines display (no backlight) and 52 push buttons. The CZ-101 is the portable version of the series with minikeys. Sometimes I guess a less advanced device is an advantage.Part of the CZ synthesizers series based on digital synthesis PD-Phase Distortion - inspired by Yamaha FM technology Yamaha DX7. When I recorded this, the workstation was not operating so I had to use a much weaker computer with a rubbish Envy24-based sound card to record it, thus the quality lacks a little.įor whatever reason the working title for this was "Project Nitelake" - interestingly this would be impossible on the larger CZ-5000 under normal operation as the wider polyphony makes it sound bad, one could possibly exploit it playing a blank patch in tone mix mode but the results would not be the same. Why should I when my RZ-1 can just sample yours? You wasted your money bro. Most likely the last track to be made solely with the CZ-1000 and RZ-1, yeah, that is the RZ-1 but I used the sampler onboard to replicate the much more expensive Linn Drum LM-2 that I don't feel like paying for. I live next to a chemical plant, fuel refinery and power station that are all situated on the same site, I thought most of this one up whilst rolling by it in a car. Slow synthetic music, somewhat experimental, sounds 80's with a little German influence.
