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

i already thought about a java editor or patch librarian.

theoretically java is able to acces available midi ports. i wrote a  
simple programm to list all my midi ports. on my pc this worked fine,  
but on my mac (ibook with midiman quatro) it only showed the internal  
midi synthesizers. maybe it is a problem with the midiman interface, or  
it is a general mac os x problem. i would be pleased if anyone can  
check this on another mac. just mail me and i´ll send you the very very  
small programm,

another problem is the xx7 sysex format. sorry emu, you did a great job  
creating those machines, but why is a single sound dump splitted into  
several pieces of sysex data ? at least, this is what i figured out of  
the sysex manual.
these several peaces makes it a bit complicated to write an editor

if there are any other people with java knowledge out there, maybe we  
can join effort an write our own patch librarian and sound converter.

feel free to contacte me offlist if you are interested.
