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

---If you'd been on this forum for more than 10 minutes you'd be 
aware of the tremendous contribution Aaron's made to the users 
group.  He's really gone out of his way to be helpful and answer 
questions, and as we recently discovered, he doesn't work for Emu 
now.  We all owe him a huge vote of thanks.  And by the way, the arp 
extension bug seems like a very small issue compared to what you'll 
find with some items of digital gear.  Especially when you consider 
what we gained with the last upgrade.
