Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I don't know why Casio gave up producing the VZ Series. I heard they'd
licensed the technology from Yamaha. Other then that there were a lot of
speculations why they left the pro market...
By the way, also the CZ-Synths are working with the same technique that
yamaha calls FM but is Phase Modulation. They simply put it in a subtractive
black box...
