The VZ10M is HUGELY programmable. It kicks the crap out of any Yamaha DX series instrument, with which it shares many features. It has 8 operators with variable waveforms PER VOICE, and it's STILL 16 note poly... we're talking about a synth with 128 oscillators! Select 8 sawtooth waves, detune them, FM them, ring mod them and you've got the JP8000's "supersaw" waveform. The envelopes go WAY deep and are easy to program, thanks to the realtime graphic reps on-screen. Like the review says, scrap the factory programs and dig in. HUGE noises. An extremely monstrous synth when hacked. Incredible!!!

I've have used the Casio VZ10m for some 9 years and I find it is worth a look. after the time it takes to coax good sounds ( none realistic ) out of the unit then it is very useful indeed. The main problem I find with it is that MOTU unisynth locks up every time I try to patch dump. In the UK thay can be purchased for as little as 50 pound ( approx $75 ) and there are lots about. Mixed with FX you have a cheep and very good sounding synth. These will prove to be popular when the inevitable FM revival comes around. Buy one now!

Hi, I have a roland gr-9 guitar synth and the vz-10m and vz-10 work perfectly with it. Probably due to casio having developed a synth of their own for guitar. If you have a guitar synth and you find one cheap you have a 2nd module that will work as if it was made for it.
