VirtualCZ delivers the same sound quality as the classic CZ synths, along with new features that bring its sound up to date. As with its hardware inspiration, VirtualCZ uses phase distortion, which is similar to FM synthesis, but easier to program. VirtualCZ mirrors the synthesis architecture of the original. All key synthesis functions are on the front panel, with graphic envelope displays. It can load and transmit CZ patches (it functions as a sysex editor for the hardware).
Ableton Live is about making music; for composition, songwriting, recording,etc.
