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

the first day i got the MP-7 i started sequencing right away and 
decided to plug in my Oxygen-8 controller to play chords into the 
machine. it instantly froze up and i had to restart it. i assumed it 
was just a problem with plugging in the controller with the machine 
on so i turned it off, plugged in the Ox-8 and then turned it on. 
worked fine for a while, but noticed the MIDI in light constantly 
flashing on the MP-7. also after several hours of sequencing (maybe 
3) it froze up on me again. when i tried to erase some notes via the 
erase button on the MP-7 and the keys on the Ox-8. the erase button 
would not stay lit while the pattern was playing back, so i stopped 
it and that was all she wrote. frozen! anyone else have similar 
problems? is this something wrong with the MP-7 or does it sound like 
the Ox-8 is creating the problem. i have not really tried the MP-7 by 
itself for any extended period of time.

also to E-MU reps, can you guys update the OS to allow 
copying/pasting of more than one track at a time? would make things a 
lot easier.
