Just announced today, and on sale for $59 until 14 DEC 2015:

Cameo Phase Distortion Suite focuses exclusively on the CZ-series.

It would have been nice if they also included the VZ-series (which I owned briefly, but found too fiddly in spite of its great sound and its uniqueness in terms of accepting wind controller input and Guitar MIDI input in special operating modes).

I have a modeled CZ-101 plug-in, so it will be interesting to compare.

I have a CZ-3000, but would love to have an official VI version of the CZ for OSX. Casio has released a CZ for the iPad, so it seems there is some interest in this synth series.

This might be a better option........

I own Virtual CZ and it is quite good.

UVI has a smaller sample set for the CZ's in one of their vintage collections, but I think this deeper/larger instrument is from new sampling sessions and also involves advanced synth features of UVI Workstation etc.

Oli Larkin and Don Solaris created presets for VirtualCZ? You surely couldn't go too far wrong with that.

If only it was a little cheaper (say, $50 instead of $99) for a cheapskate like me...

VirtualCZ is excellent, easily worth the price if you like CZ synthesis.

Oh, you just missed their Black Friday sale. The CZ was going for 40% off. Keep an eye open, hopefully they'll discount it again for a Christmas sale.
