Yes
they can and do here in the Boston metro area, so thats another suggestion. I'd
also call
different stores just in case to make sure one sales
person doesn't give you bum dope just
because they don't feel like doing their
job.

Subject: [xl7] Re: XL7 Sequencer for playing external MIDI
Since Guitar Center and Mars Music are both "national" chain stores,
was the clerk able to check inventory at another location? Exp: I
stopped at my local GC in Maryland last month which did not have the
new 2500 or the Orbit 3 in stock at the time, I told him that I would
be in Chicago the next week and he checked their inventory and saw
that they had a few of each module in stock so I assume that they can
do it with a ROM as well.
Good Luck
