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

Aha! I'm making progress. I've now joined the group and I,m 
sending post....I hope. When recording in grid mode,I find
 that I dont seem to have enough time to enter my selected notes
for each bar as the little red lights keep skipping on to the next bar
then I enter notes In the wrong place then I get annoyed then I switch
it off. How do I get it to stay with the first bar eg so I can 
programme it before moving on to the next (if I,m doing 4 bars in a 
row)
