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

Am I going to risk any preset madness by adding roms?  I imagine not, but I
was just wondering if anyone's presets got messed or funked or their songs
defaulted to diff presets when you install new roms...

I just ordered 2 roms (xl & world) and i can't wait to get them!

Nope, it will all work out fine.

One thing that is nice is, the more ROM's you have, the more original 
your presets can become by taking elements from different ones to 
save to user locations;)

Definitely.  I never really scroll through the presets anymore, I just go 
through the actual waveforms.  Better variety that way when you have more 
than one ROM installed.  Lots of really cool waveforms too, many of which 
are completely under-utilized by the stock factory presets.

Actually, the less ROM's you have, the more original your presets can
become since you're persuaded to make the most of the programming and
modulation architecture rather than the samples.

But, hey, who am I to talk, with a fully loaded XL-7?

All the ROM's have unique ID's; these actually appear as one of the
bank-change controller values (which you see if you hit the audition
button).

I set it up so my first User Preset (000:0) is the Default one (located 
originally in the last XL-7 Rom Preset location), which has no waveforms 
selected.  To get to the waveforms page, press Preset Edit, then hit track 
mute button 1 twice.  Use the track up and down buttons to switch layers.

That way, whenever I go to a blank track, I always have a fresh canvas 
loaded for sound design.  BTW, I also saved a Pattern with this blank 
Preset saved to all of the tracks.  Then I copied this Pattern to all of 
my unused User Pattern locations.  That way, any time I go to a new User 
pattern to make a tune, all of the tracks are free.

Umm, I explained that terribly, let me know if you need me to clarify 
more.
