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

Wow... big chunk o' questions... 

>>>I've got a lot of uses for this thing, thus so many questions :) <<<
Due to popular demand, we've placed all of our drummaps up on the web. 
This is a two-level mapping, one from preset to 4 instruments (on the 4 
layers, second screen in the preset edit menu), and then the web doc 
handling the instrument to keymap mapping.
>>>Could you explain this one more?  What about switching samples within a 
kit, is it possible? <<<
Oh, but they can!  Every pattern saves a snapshot of the current FX 
settings and restores them at the beginning of every pattern.  Simply edit 
the master FX (including send routing) and save your pattern!
>>>Whew, I think I missed that one somehow!  So if I'm playing live and 
switch patterns without stopping playback, the effects will switch as 
well?  Why are the effects settings under the global screen, if they're 
not global then?  <<< 
 
You can.  Just scroll past the USER presets, and it will take you to the 
XL-7 presets. 

>>>I know you can still get access to the XL-7 presets by scrolling.  It's 
just odd that it jumps to the USER banks first, when the XL-7 ones are 
displayed upon initially entering that screen.  Just a quirk I guess, 
sorry. <<<

for most things. 

>>>Thanx! <<<

This is a real wish list item, but it would be nice if there was some way 
you could easily see if you've got Presets that haven't been saved while 
in Pattern mode.We're on to you... Take a look at the new feature list for 1.17... 

>>>It doesn't mention this in the Emu newsletter, are there more features 
coming in the new OS than what was included in the newsletter? <<<
 
Of course! 

>>>Thanx for the quick reply Aaron!  Much appreciated! <<<
