Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Im not sure youre correct but I may be incorrect also. but as I understand 
it each sample may be assigned instantly to any midi controller or drum pad 
you want using a few mouse clicks and a drop down menu or possibly a 
keyboard short cut.  I have intended to use the program as described but I 
probably should have clarified that I intend to assign a sample to one midi 
pad on my mp-7 and one pad only then record the sequence of that pad from my 
mp-7 then assign another sample to another part maybe a snare drum then 
record that part then record another sequence from my mp-7 as described than 
using live's sequencer I can mix and apply effects as desired. and use the 
sequences I created in live throught my song as I wish.. if in fact abletons 
live were not able to do this it would be basically useless as a fully 
functional sampler. I seriously doubt all this is just wishfull thinking on 
my part. How could it not be possible.. I am pretty sure Im right as all 
this is not so hard to accomplish via midi and software.
