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

"Why not copy just the patches you need into user patch locations?". Yep, that is what I have done, but I filled the user banks quickly, so there are many other great presets that I cannot access any longer from my sequencer. Other than a few too many stab/hits/scratches on MROM card, 303 & sub bases on XL7 card, and GM drum kits on ZR card, I pretty much want all the other presets.

What that means is that I can select all the User banks using LSB, or I can select bank 0 on any of the ROM cards using MSB, but I cannot select banks above 0 on the ROM cards because you would need both LSB and MSB to do that. So I must copy ROM card banks above 0 to the User banks, so that I can access them using LSB only.
