The CZ synths were really underrated, I think because the presets IMHO are a bit rubbish.
I still love them though. Phase distortion can make some really great noises with a bit of coaxing.
I have the bigger CZ-5000 with the built in sequencer I bought used in the 90s and still play. I think it was probably used most famously by Drexciya but the Kevin Saunderson "Reece Bass" sound was everywhere in early jungle.
I like this CZP-1 soft synth. It's pretty nice once you flip the flow from left to right to top to bottom.
I you have CZ-5000 you’re probably aware of Satoshi & Makoto who are making music using only CZ-5000 with its 8-track sequencer.

Oh! No I wasn't, thank you.
Why is it so difficult to buy N-octave mini keyboards, for various N>2, with a good built-in set of samples?
Its not? Yamaha Reface.
But they don't have an acoustic piano built in (yes, I know, the CP has an acoustic piano as an easter egg, but that doesn't count).
BoC mentioned on the HN frontpage is a nice surprise :)
BoC AND Casio CZ mentioned both in same article? I’m sold.
I don't know who posted this but I also watched the original video and wished I could access those patches so thank you
