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

The jog wheel is sensitive to how fast you turn it... if you turn it hard and fast, it will jump through values very rapidly, but if you turn it slower, it will only increase 1 value for every click.  In time, this feature will become one of your best friends, especially if you add other roms to the unit and have a lot of presets to sift through.  You do have an increment/decrement value selector for tracks/channels which will change only the track or channel, but it's much quicker than using the jog wheel.
