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

Hi,
I want to convert my XL7 into an MP7, and just wanted to check which 
ROM I need to get.  I found the Pure Phatt rom on ebay here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewItem&item=2552611096&category=1287

... but I remember reading here that there are different versions of 
this ROM.  Basically, I want to install the ROM, wipe all the XL7 
patterns, install the MP7 patterns, and have a virtual MP7.  Anything 
I need to look out for?
Thanks,
grimley

I asked this question a few weeks ago without reply. This was covered 
last year but I could not find the old topic. I seem to remember that 
the Mo Phatt and the MP-7 ROM is slightly different and you need the 
MP-7 ROM if you want to import the patterns without having to match 
up all the patches to the pattern tracks manually. I finally gave up 
and opted for a used MP-7. Maybe someone can clear this up.

Aaron, Realm ... anyone?

Yes.

Was there any more to this question?

Actually, this one's covered pretty regularly.  Anyway, no, the Pure
Phatt ROM is not an MP-7 ROM.  The presets are different, as are the
IDs that identify the ROM.  You can download user presets that map MP-7
presets to the Pure Phatt ROM, but the factory MP-7 patterns will not
play unless you manually reassign every program change...

If you need to order a new ROM anyway, then I would just suggest making 
sure they send you an MP-7 one, should work fine then.  To be honest 
though I can't guarantee it, when these conversations come up here on the 
list, they don't really pertain to my use, so I kinda gloss over them, 
sorry.  :(

This is all very confusing ... thank gawd I checked here before I 
made the purchase.  The MP7 rom is not even listed on the accessories 
page for the XL7 on the EMU site.  Actually, the "wrong" rom IS 
listed (eg. the same one I found on eBay).
