Plugin Boutique has released an update to the VirtualCZ software synthesizer instrument that brings the sounds of the Casio CZ series of synths.
VirtualCZ is an emulation of the synthesis engine from the CASIO CZ range of synthesisers that were produced in the 1980s. It also functions as an editor for those synthesisers, since it can save, load and transmit CZ System Exclusive (SYSEX) data. VirtualCZ offers many enhancements and extra features to increase the possibilities and improve usability.
