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

I must say you should be shopping these around if your not already....well 
produced and constructed keep
up the good work!

>>>Thank you. I do send out demos of all my tunes, sadly no takers in a 
long while :( <<<

dig theguitar that comes in around 1:00 is that the Pod Xt? I was thinking 
about getting one....have you used the
Pro version? 

>>>Yes, this is my Ibanez S540FM guitar running through a Pod XT, and I 
have all of the new model packs for the Pod installed as well.  I played 
with a Pro version briefly when I was debating getting the bean versus the 
rack mount Pod XT.  They sound identical, the only real difference is 
connections.  I personally though the bean was a better value for the 
money. <<<

We All Follow The Moon....nice deep house
track....lots of guitar again....you like those
reversed sounds

>>>I'm a sucker for reversed sounds, I admit it.  I love how just playing 
something backwards can totally change it's feel and context. Probably one 
of my most used key commands in SX :) <<<

Fate is Powerless...cool 303 happenin' here...chunky
beats....nice atmosphere comin' in....cool
arps...where they from?sounds like the
Virus....

>>>Yes, those are from the Virus. <<<

I'm curious to find out how much of the Px-7 is in these tracks....

>>>These days I'm mainly using the PX-7 for percussion sounds like toms 
and ethnic hits, that sort of thing.  The World rom is great for this kind 
of stuff. Sometimes I'll use a sine (or the subduh) wave from the PX-7 to 
add more weight to the basslines, but mainly just percusions sounds. <<<

I have an Xl-7 and use it for beats mostly...just figured out that I need 
to run it
through a compressor to really get it to hit....

>>>Some compression really seems to help, I'll give you that. <<<

you ever use the midi features with your Virus or any hardware?

>>>Yes, there's been a few times I've used the arps in the Px-7 to control 
other gear like the Virus.  But in terms of the PX-7 sequencer, if I use 
it in a song, it's mostly to control only the PX-7.  If I need to sequence 
other gear, I can typically do it faster in SX.  That's just my preference 
though.  The only other thing I use the PX-7's midi functions for, is 
applying swing quantize to previously recorded midi notes.  If I have 
something midi sequenced in SX, sometimes I'll export that as a midi file, 
import it into the PX-7, use it's swing quantize, then reverse the 
procedure.  I really like the swing in the command stations, it's very 
musical sounding.

To be honest, I almost never use midi anymore period.  I typically just 
play my parts by hand and record them into SX as audio files.  It's just 
more immediate and intuitive for me. <<<
