Yeah there is the 32MB flash ROM, which you can write your own
samples/instruments to using an E-MU Ultra sampler. I have both the sampler
and the flash ROM, but I haven't got round to programming it yet. If you get
yourself a flash ROM and send me that plus the samples you want on it, I
will be happy to program it for you. The flash ROMs aren't cheap however,
E-MU sell them for $396. I got mine for $160 dollars but it was the last one
they had in the shop.

Regards,

Stu

I have the prootzoa its the only rom I got. I got my mp-7 with a protozoa
rom at agreat price and I sold the mp-7 rom. but the protozoa is great its
16 mb of the bread and butter acustic type instruments. The piano is great
its good for that twangy hip hop sound and its great for down tempo type
stuff too there are a few good strings. Ive made about 9 songs using just
one of the better string sounds. and Ive recently just discovered a cello
sound for hip hop. I really have no complaints about the sounds except as
far as drum kits go.. They sound great I love them but theres only 4 types
and not a decent 909 or 808 type sound. But you can do a great number of
things with this rom... But I am however planning on getting rid of mine
once I get the proteus drum rom and the orchestra strings and the vintage
keys roms. Actually I might not get rid of it but I heard somewhere that
there is a rom dedicated to letting you store 32 mb of just user created
presets is that true I sure hope so.. I sure could use that.
