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

Some footnotes:
The MP-7 factory patterns & songs are in the files section.

If you want, you can insert empty patterns (using e-loader) and blank/default presets in each user slot. I saw some blank presets in the files section, but I am not sure if they have ROM IDs or patchcords embedded in them.

I got an MP7 off eBay (wanted XL7 but it arrived DOA so I got MP7 instead and will look for XROM card) and all the user slots are filled with horrible-ness that hurts my ears. With presets, I figured out how to scroll past all the user banks to get to the factory presets (for both ROM cards) that sound good. But with patterns, it looks like maybe all the slots were user-editable because they are all horrible, no factory patterns.
