Sorry, wrong about the "Soundwaves" floppy library. It's third party. See below.
So I guess I don't have any of the public domain sounds for the FZ. That gives me more incentive into figuring out how to download those blasted fzf files. Is the FZ Dump a free tool? I don't want to have to admit that I don't even own a PC to MIDI interface at this point in my life. Actually I dug out my old Steinberg PC MIDI interface a couple months back and I couldn't even figure out what possible port it might've been intended for. I hope it wasn't for a Commodore. In my own feeble defense I do have a basic MAC to MIDI adapter that I got back in the day for my CZ 101. I still have the CZ librarian/ editor and some sounds which came in handy when I got the CZ 1 and the CZ 5000 a few months ago.

As the Director of Software Division with K-Muse Inc., Arne was responsible for the world's first ever 3rd party sample library - "The Sound Composer's Series" for the Ensoniq Mirage (released over 20 years ago, and developed on a MAC+ with 1MB of RAM, and a Dyaxis 16bit AD/DA ($20k) system... Yikes!). He then did a 50 disk library for the Casio FZ-1 after starting his own company, "SoundWaves".

I have 34 or so "Soundwaves" floppies that I believe came from Casio.
