Re: is the MP7 also discontinued

2003-06-18 by glennjamison

Has there even been an official announcement from E-mu that the XL-7 
is being discontinued?  I doubt it.  They could have just sold a 
bunch at a really low cost to reduce some extra inventory.  Also, if 
it is indeed discontinued, it would be just because of the color.  
The new PK-7 is the exact same unit with a different color and a 
different rom chip.  I'm sure we'll even see a couple more "new" 
command stations come out with more colors and rom chips. The yellow 
was never very popular and alot of people who actually wanted the xl-
1 soundset ended up getting an MP-7 and an xl lead chip just to avoid 
having to look at that yellow all the time.  So a discontinued XL-7 
would have nothing to do with a new product coming out and it 
certainly doens't have anything to do with the XL-7 being a bad or 
obsolete product.  It's just the color.  I'd say that the MP-7 won't 
be blown out like that but who knows.
