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

Yeah, good to know, thanks yet again Steve!

I must thank Jan again for prodatum, it has made life 20 times easier. In the time it normally takes me to edit one preset, I can do about 20. The presets I've been making with prodatum just seem to sound better too. Having all the tweakable parameters in front of me instead of flipping trough menus on the MP-7 has been a monumental convenience.

In the process I discovered that the E-Mu boxes somehow save the settings that are in effect at power down. I seem to recall this is not 100% identical with what's stored in a multisetup.
