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

YAY! another mono 8 voice synth from Roland that takes a tech writing
masters degree to decipher the manual and an engineering degree to
navigate. aside from sampling...it prolly ain't got nothin on the
E-MU. my last main synth was an XP-50 i've owned since 96. after 6
long years i was just beginning to figure out how it all worked when i
noticed last july i could get an XL-7 from mars music for $750 -$200
rebate from E-MU (yes..$550 =) . after a couple hours of using the
thing i wanted to kick myself in the ass for not buying an E-MU
sooner. writing experimental music and manipulating sounds has ceased
to become a chore. now i'm ACTUALLY having fun in my home studio. and
being 80% more productive. imagine that! a synth that's monsterously
powerful AND fun to use. thanks E-MU!
