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

While we are adding local off, this doesn't seem to be your problem.  Can you
list the connections on your studio for both ins and outs?  I need three
things: 1) where the output of your XL-7 goes (port #) 2) where the input
into the XL-7 comes from, and 3) where the output of the controller goes.

It should be XL-7 -> In3, Out3 -> XL-7, Controller -> In2 (or something
else).  Also, unless you want to record the arpeggiation from the XL-7, you
should turn off arp transmit (third screen in the arp menu).  Also, you
should make sure that you have soft thru (MERGE MIDI IN TO OUT, 4th screen in
Midi) to off for both A and B.
