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

I have 2.0 - but even the earlier versions have grid mode. That's 
what I love about the XL-7. That's why I want another drum machine 
with this feature. I've gotten so used to working with grid mode 
that it's become a necessity. I'm not looking to get rid of my XL-7 -
 I just want to have as many great drum machines as possible.
