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

Hi Heinrich,

Go into the note list and look also, if the length of the notes is too low.
I had a problem with notes that were only on tick long in logic. Importing
this lines into my mp-7 made the notes not play. The problem was, that the
note on and off came on the same tick and the note didn´t play. Actually
this was a mistake from logic´s midifile but your problem sounds similar to
me. Try to make the events longer if they are only one tick long. If the
problem persists, call the emu support hotline in the usa, these guys do a
really good job and helped me solving some problems i had.

>Go into Note List edit and look at the velocities and note lengths of the notes
that aren't playing back.  Are the velocities too low, or the note lengths
too long?  Also, the HH's typically use a feature called Assign Group to
allow open HH's to turn off closed HH's (although it has many more uses than
just this).  Check on page 178 of the manual to see what I'm talking about.
Go into the Preset Edit mode for the Drum Preset that's >giving you the
