No I have not. My reason is that I currently have a EMU XL-1 and love 
it. I would never get rid of it if I was not going to get the XL-7. 
But since I am strongly leaning that way I will be trading my XL-1 
during my XL-7 purchase. The other point is that I have a sampler, 
Akai S2000 so do not require those features as much.
