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

Hi

Don't want to destroy any dreams but the XL7 isn't a sampler...its a Rom based synth albeit very powerful.

>Best MD's.
Although Sony look cute they aren't the best for recording as you can't vary the sensitivity 

With sharps you can adjust the recording/sensitivity level on the fly so they are better for live situations

You could also try and find a 2nd had Portable DAT off ebay or something

Note that you can't take the recording back to your PC digitally you need a separate deck for that.

check www.minidisco.com for some good advice and which mics to pick

also check out that new sony Md MZ-10 it has EQ and 64x transfer.

  Dear XL-7 and MP-7 users group.


  I am a musician with  the instrumental band wanderjahr (see:
  www.wanderjahrmusic.com). This group utilizes mostly guitars,
  keyboards, drums, etc.

  I am looking into getting a portable mini-disc recorder and perhaps a
  sampler-sequencer. I want to record sounds, like cars going by, etc,
  with the mini-disc recorder, and play them back with the sampler
  sequencer during live performances. I am looking at both the xl-7 and
  the mp-8, but was wondering if these are overkill for whatI want to
  do? Also, can anyone recommend a good mini disc recorder?

  Thanks!

  Sam
