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

I wrote the following as general thoughts on the MOTU interface.  I 
am not sure your problem is an interface problem, though.  

I actually have a P-2500 with XL-1 rom and never use solo mode. So I 
can't really address that issue.  Hope others who use solo mode can 
help.

========================================================
If this is the 8 x 8 midi router, I have the parallel port version 
running Windows98SE and cakewalk software (pre-sonar).

I recommend:
(1) go to the motu site (for help, latest drivers, etc.)
(2) if you don't find your answer there either e-mail or call (non-
toll free).

I have gotten excellent help from those two sources on MOTU related 
issues.

========>  BUT FIRST:
Based on Windows98SE, I'd check Control Panel | Multimedia Properties 
| MIDI to make sure MIDI ports are showing up properly.

Then check Multimendia Properties | Devices to make sure midi ports 
are there too (MXPXT: Ou1 1 - 8, All).  NOTE: For some reason, MXPXT: 
Out 1 also contains all ports in the list.  I am not sure if you will 
find this, if so, it does not seem to cause the problem you describe.

NEXT: Use the appropriate MOTU utility for your computer/OS for 
configuring the interfeace presets to check what's going on.

Hope this helps.

for some reason solo mode seems to be having no effect on channels 
2+.  It happens when sequenced from the computer, and when I control 
it from my keyboard.  Instead of the next note in the sequence 
sounding, the first one just rings out and you hear silence.  So with 
overlapping notes in a sequence, I can only hear the first one.
