Re: XL-7 or MP-7

I asked my dealer that same question. His reply is that when he asks 
Emu about the composer ROM they refer him to "Sounds of the ZR". His 
contact at Emu says the two ROM's are similar enough that they see no 
need to release the composer ROM as an expansion.

I had Sounds of the ZR in my P2K because of the nice piano and moved 
it to my XL-1 upon purchase. It matches very nicely with the XL-1 
ROM. I plan to add the World board to the XL-1 to really expand my 
possibilities. I have the Techno board in the P2K and hope to put an 
orchestral board in each device. My goal is to spread related ROM's 
across the two machines, doubling polyphony and lightening the load 
on each machine. That way I can do heavy orchestrations or 
complicated techno passages using the machines in tandem so the midi 
timing stays tight.
