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

Sure, pretty much any software sampler will do this.  I personally have 
been using Reason for creating loops out of my own samples.  Once I have 
the loops, these get transferred to a Roland Sp808 for use live.  All of 
it being controlled from the XL-7, they're very flexible in this regards.

        Subject:        [xl7] MP-7 Sampler Help


First of all thanx to Steve for the tips...

Does anyone know a way (software possibly) to make the MP-7 trigger 
my own samples.  I have some kick ass samples I want to use in my 
tracks.  But is there a sampling program out that can trigger 
multiple samples while I mix down. if so give a holla

realm,

how do you setup reason ? do you sync your xl7 to reason or do you use 
the xl7 as a master ?
if the lx7 is your master, how do you cope with the latency issue when 
you trigger sounds from the xl7 via midi ?

i´m thinking of using reason as a sampler, too. my only concern is the 
latency issue, because my xl7 has to be master.
if i have to use reason as clock master, i have to buy a new 
midi-interface.

btw
has anyone used an edirol 880 or 550 ? is it possible to use the 
routing system, when it is connected to a computer ?

>>>Well, Reason will only function as a MIDI slave, not as a master, so 
yeah the XL-7 is the master in tthis case.  If you go to the MIDI 
preferences in Reason, you can tell it which port to use for MIDI clock, 
then you just click on the sync button in transport panel.  You'll see a 
green light below it if you're getting MIDI clock into Reason.

if the lx7 is your master, how do you cope with the latency issue when you 
trigger sounds from the xl7 via midi ?

>>>Latency isn't an issue for me, my sound card (Echo Layla 24) drivers 
are set to 7ms, and it's very stable.  I can run all the way down to 3ms, 
but tend to leave it at 7ms to reduce the CPU load and keep the 
performance consistant. <<<

i´m thinking of using reason as a sampler, too. my only concern is the 
latency issue, because my xl7 has to be master.

>>>As long as your sound card has fairly recent drivers, it's pretty easy 
to use without noticing any latency.  Anything below 10ms feels fine to 
me, can't even tell you're using software.  BTW, Reason works awesome with 
the XL-7 IMO, very easy to integrate, and the MIDI routing in Reason is 
comprehensive enough to let you do a lot with that app. <<<

thanks for the quick answer.
i´ll try out the reason demo as soon as possible. let´s see what my 
tiny ibook and a m-audio quattro can do.
by the way, ableton released a new public beta for live 2.1 . i tried 
the 2.0 beta and it´s a nice add on to the xl7, especially since it has 
a midi delay compensation.
<hint> the 2.0 beta really liked the year 2002 </hint>

the only thing that´s missing right now is time to make music :-(

i´m running 10.2.6, but i must admit i used my pc to update the xl7.
as far as i know the e-loader doesn´t work on os x :-(
you habe to use os9 to update.

this may be apples fault since apples java midi implementation is ugly.  
they didn´t implement the java.midi classes for extgernal  
midi-interfaces. instead they created their own classes. that´s what i  
call platform dependet :-(

hey aaron, are there any plans to release an os x compatible e-loader  
and
<dream mode = on>
a usb midi driver (with support for the external i/o, please) for mac  
(os x ) and / or pc
<dream mode = off>
