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

Steve,
Thanks, I figured out the mod wheel issue.  I had to assign it to CC#
1 on the Evolution and then it started controlling the MP-7.  When I
got the Evolution originally though, I just plugged it into the P2K
and the mod wheel worked with the default settings. Thats why I was
confused. I dont remember changing it, but maybe I did accidentally at
some point. Anyway thanks for your responses. 

And thanks for your offer.  My MMT-8 still works fine, but its got
such a small amount of memory you cant save much work into it.  Great
design though, so easy to use. 

Peace,
Dale
