Hey dirtydarrin,
I hope you find your Z1. I recently went through the process of acquiring one and they are pretty hard to find. I can't believe these things are collector's items. I can't stop playing mine since it arrived. I also can't believe there isn't more discussion of this beast on this or any other forum. There was a forum for the Z1 but it's no longer on line, available on CD though.
Hope you get it.

No better feeling than enjoying your new instrument

Yep yep
So far I'm lovin it.
Only real complaints are:
1) It weighs like 60 lbs (with the case)
2) OS seems a little slow. Supposedly this can be remedied by updating it, but I don't have the first clue as to how to do that (or even where to get it)
The presets are bad, but I didn't buy it for that anyways. I bought it to get down and dirty with the waves. I really like toying with the comb-filter osc and bowed string osc. They're pretty rad. Slowly, I"m starting to realize how complex this machine is... so many controllable parameters. If I can learn to manage with the menu system I think this will turn out to be one heck of a good choice as my first hardware piece. My keyboarding skills are s**t, but I'll get there.
