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

Hi, Eric, 
you´re definitely right!

The only reason I do not use the E-loader is: I bought the mp-7, got 
the box without E-Loader of the Emu sales rep in Germany and I am 
waiting for the new box to arrive with CD-ROM and stuff - since five 
or six weeks by now!!!

Download? - At the moment I am using a very old laptop without 
internet facilities at home for sequencing. I am waiting for my newer 
laptop to be fixed but the retailer went broke and refuses to send it 
back. Shall I ask some repo-man???

The Posting I do at work (if I find the time).

Still: Any ideas about these missing notes? Maybe this thing is just 
obsolete when my mp-7 finally arrives. So I keep waiting. Is E-loader 
running okay? I read about some people havin difficulties installing 
it.

Thank you for answering
