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

I feel it has strong set of drum sounds. The bass
drums are a little light as far getting a really deep
thump. But it can be achieved. In fact recently there
were a lot discussions in this group about how to get
great drum sounds. I tried mine at a Guitar Center as
well and its volume never was loud enough. They had it
patch into a set of passive monitors. If you can
listen to the soundsets inside headphones the next
time you visit G.C., it would help you decide if the
sounds are to your liking. I got my XL7 when they
offered the free expansion ROM, so I have more options
than the standard box now. I am thinking as a
Christmas gift to myself, to get even more ROM.
