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

That's odd that it was done that way because those presets were 
released mid last year and the feature to use them was just 
implemented.  Come to think of it, I was playing around with a P2500
(OS 1.1* which had BTS presets which only seemed to work when 
pressing audition)at a GC store in Chicago while testing the new 
Midiman Oxygen-8 controller and tried to set up BTS parameters like I 
had at home as far as the velocities and trigger assignments and it 
didn't work.
