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

Welcome back, and congrats on your MP-7. Looks like a nice set of ROMs (and other gear to go with the E-Mu)!

I'd certainly recommend OS2. What OS is in there? 

I am not sure about your other questions/concerns. I have a P2500, but have never hooked it up to Win7. I doubt the E-Mu usb drivers would work, but since OS update works via midi, not usb, I am thinking it should work on win7.

I haven't done multitrack dubbing from one sequencer to the E-Mu sequencer,so maybe others can answer that question.

Again, welcome.

Steve
