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

I have noticed some similar loud popping sounds on my xl-1 with beat 
garden when:

Syncing to MIDI clock then changing presets while auditiong. The pops 
are very loud and seem to be related to the effects. I checked and my 
system was setup to use the effects settings on channel 1, so when 
chnainging these presets, I was changing global effect types as well.

Maybe setting the master option to a global efect setting (not using 
a particular midi channel as the source of effect settings) is the 
fix?
