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

I am not sure why you are in a snit.  You said you wanted an XL-7. 
Someone suggested looking for one on e-bay. There might be other 
options, such as calling around to music stores and telling them if 
someone wants to trade one in to let you know because you are 
interested in buying one, searching the web for on-line music 
stores, looking in newspapers--classified ads: musical instruments, 
etc.  Personally, I have done shopping for gear on e-bay. But you 
may not want to or be able to use e-bay.

True, Aaron was a little curt with his remark about e-mu being sold 
12 years ago, but I don't think he meant to be snide. 

The rest of the discussion that took off seems to be just people 
wanting to talk about issues related to e-mu's hardware synths as 
legacy gear.  I didn't see anyone being malicious.  (Believe me, on 
other lists I have spoken out against intentional rudeness and one-
upmanship. I reviewed the posts since yours and didn't see any of 
that directed at you.)

If I inadvertantly said something in my posts that seemed to be 
directed as hostility towards you, I apologize.  I'd like to think 
others here feel likewise.

If you really want an XL-7, keep looking. When you find one, check 
out the FAQs in the Files section. Come back with questions and you 
will probably find die hard e-mu hardware enthusiasts here--maybe 
even those who graduated to PC-based e-mu gear/software.
