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

I won't get into your method or what you are trying to do but I will say you might be  using the wrong tools for what you are trying to do.
  Instead of trying to use the AMT8 as your point of routing use it as your computer interface and get something like the MIDIMAN THRU 3x8 (they also had an 8x8 version) it should allow you to do what you are trying to do more effectively and without the headaches.
   
  It will give you 3 MIDI inputs (A/B/C) and 8 MIDI outputs (1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8) and each of the 8 outs has a selector switch to pick which input is being feed to it.
   
  If you connected the Waldorf to "A", the XL7 to "B" and the computer out to "C" you already have functional routing that you could selectably distribute to your 8 outs and it wouldn't be dependent on the XL7's status.
  It would be a simple flip of a switch to determine what goes where and in most cases the switches would stay set.
   
  Seems like that would be a better even if to feed the AMT.
   
  Might want to look into it.
  I have felt the 3x8 to be one of the most helpful things I have added to the studio in all these years.

  Hi Steve,
the XTk is going into the AMT8. It's like this because I want
to be able to control all the other gear while omitting the 
Emu. The composing process is using a computer as well with
sequencing software and here I need the XTk too.
I could do the daisy chain but then I would have serious problems
with the SoundDiver I'm using for programming the synths (tried
and tested - it's very unreliable, it might be SD's fault ...)
Regards:
      Zsolt
