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

Sean, 

Thanks for your input on the E-5000.  I have wondered about these, 
but haven't seen/played with them.  I work for a E-mu Dealer in 
Madison, WI.  I will definatly see if i can't check it out.  though, 
that's half the problem with me making my decision, i can't check 
htem out.
