Re: EMU XL7 .ins - works for Sonar but I have a question

Good Dr. -
Yeah, I meant presets. 
Cakewalk sends bank switch command 1792 + preset # [0-127]
to select a particular preset in the particular ROM whose MSB is 14.

1792 - 1795 are ROM banks for the ROM whose MSB = 14.

So for the user presets that would be like this, right?
MSB = 0 * 128 + LSB = 0 ====> 1920
MSB = 0 * 128 + LSB = 1 ====> 1921
MSB = 0 * 128 + LSB = 2 ====> 1922
MSB = 0 * 128 + LSB = 3 ====> 1923
I mean, its kind of confusing to me (no surprise!) since you are 
multiplying the bank number times 128; in this case I assume I would 
just be adding 128 + LSB + 1792.
So am I there yet?
One more thing, I have the world expedition ROM installed, but I 
have no documentation with it - by any chance do you know the MSB 
for this one?
A thousand thanks!
Dana

For AOrch ROM (If you had that installed):

MSB = 66 * 128 + LSB = 0 ====> 8448
MSB = 66 * 128 + LSB = 1 ====> 8449
