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

Good ideas, particularily the erasing a track without
stopping....personally, I would prefer to be able to use the 'erase' button
in a full note mode in realtime as while, instead having to try and hold
down multiple notes at the same time in a thick track. That's one feature
that always made the MPC's so fluid...that along with the continuos
play/record while doing pretty much anything in it, and the adjustable note
speed on the drum roll (repeat) button. I'd love to see any or all of these
features implemented. My personal main reason for buying an XL7 in lieu of
an MPC2000 was cut down to one thing...the total allowable notes in the ram
(mpc only can handle 120,000 I think). But at least it could easily save to
a zip or floppy disk. Never had to use my computer with it for anything!

Mmm, I'll stop ranting before I too carried away... after all, I DO love my
xl7, I just miss some of the easeful comforts I've had in the past with
other gear.
