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

i'm considering an XL7 as a hardware sequencer/drum machine in 
conjunction with my Novation Nova and Emu Orbit.  has anyone had 
experiences (good or bad) in having the XL7 control Novation and 
other Emu stuff?

specifically, i want to make sure that program changes and other CC 
data are able to be recorded and played back properly.  i would 
assume that all i need to do is insert a program change event at the 
start of a track?

I was also wondering abou the XL7's capabilities as an external 
sequencer.  If it can sequence it's own sounds along with my XP then 
we may have a winner.  The only highly portable sequencer/synth I 
know of is the yamaha's qy100 and the RM1x.

The MP7 rocks as an extenral sequencer.  I've got it clocked to an 
SP1200, and then controlling an ASR10, 2 Mirages, Yamaha A4000, 
MKS80, and a TX81Z.  Works great, couldnt be happier, the onboard 
sounds are a bonus.  Free yourself from the shackles of computers...

For these sorts of questions, why not just download the XL-7 manual
from www.emu.com? It covers the sequencing capabilities in some depth.
