I suspect that the ROM instrument pointers in each of the patterns 
are point to the original rom.  If I am correct, you would have to 
change all pointers to the installed rom's instuments.

I haven't done this in months, but I seem to recall needing to change
(1) rom instruments for all layers
(2) audition riffs
(3) links (if any)
(4) possibly other

I started to write a program to do conversions automatically, but it 
was quite a task to try to create a matrix of rom instruments. I have 
no intention of returning to this project.  If others want to tackle 
this one, I will be glad to suggest methods.

Don't know who did the XL-1 conversions.  I thought E-Mu did it 
themselves possible as part of the XL-7 design process.
