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

yes I have no problems sending midi to the xl-7 and it is recognized
when i plug it in via midi, but i can't get any patterns out of the
machine onto the pc.

also does the usb allow for the xfer of midi clock?
I really hope so because I have a laptop w/ no midi in/out
