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

My imperssion is that the computer interface is the big difference 
between the eMagic and the MOTU. Both seem reliable as independent 
patchbays. You should look into the user groups for your sequencer 
and see what people have to say. I use Logic and the eMagic seems to 
be the favorite choice for it (no surprise). Many folks on the Logic 
list have had problems with MOTU interfaces on the PC (myself 
included), but the Mac folks love them. A number of people also claim 
that MOTU has fixed most of their PC issues with the winXP drivers 
(but if you still use win98 you are SOL).
