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

I assumed the master volume knob was hardware; apparently not, since
it's buggy. I'm running a lot of tracks all with MIDI volume at zero,
but when I turn the master volume knob to zero (more accurately, on
the zero/nonzero transition) I get all sorts of loud bleeps, spikes
and overloads, sometimes even what sound like stuck notes. The problem
mostly (but not always) happens when the internal sequencer is
running.

I found this out while trying to work round other bugs (like
unpleasant sporadic filter clicks on some notes, and really bad
sequencer timing). I could probably narrow most of these bugs down
further, and will do so once I know that E-mu are going to continue
doing software revisions; otherwise, there's no real point.
