Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the SONICWARE ELZ_1 play.
The ELZ_1 play is a battery-powered compact synthesizer with multi-
synth engines that you can take anywhere for sound creation.
Based on the ELZ_1 released in 2019, it has been reborn with
signicant upgrades in both hardware and software.
The ELZ_1's form remains unchanged, but with new synth engines,
a newly developed 4-track looper that expands performance
possibilities, and higher quality stereo speakers, the ELZ_1 play
allows for deeper sound creation.
The ELZ_1 play takes you on another journey of sound exploration.
Key Features
・ 17 synth engines including 3 new ones: "ZTRINGS" physical
modeling string engine, "SUPER OSC" for loud detuned sounds, and
"STK DRUMMER" sampled drum engine
・ A total of 33 eects, including 20 insert eects and 13 master
eects
・ Newly developed 4-track looper for easy recording, playback, and
overdubbing at the touch of a track button
More rened hardware
Playability has been greatly improved, not only by the stereo speakers
built into the side panel and the velocity-sensitive keyboard, but also
by the feel of the buttons and encoders on the panel.

Key Features
Perform live anywhere
Since it's battery-powered and has a built-in speaker, you can create
sounds anytime, anywhere, from the top of a majestic mountain to a
relaxing cafe by the sea, or even crawling into bed without missing a
moment's ideas.
Synchronize with all kinds of devices
By using the USB-C connector in addition to the MIDI/SYNC
connectors, you can connect external synthesizers, drum machines,
PCs, etc., and synchronize multiple devices to use them together.
It can be synchronized with the Liven series, SmplTrek, and even
Teenage Engineering's PO series.
Also, by bridging clock synchronization signals between dierent
types of connectors, such as generating MIDI clock from it's SYNC IN
connection, it will be useful at the center of live performances.
By expanding MIDI functionality to support MIDI CC, many parameters
can now be controlled from external MIDI controllers or automation on
your DAW.
