I don\ufffdt know if this helps, but maybe you may try to let fix the power 
supply. Mine was done (i guess they changed a/some transistor/s) in Buenos 
Aires (expensive in electronic matters) for 40$US by a generator supplier. 
It tooked about 10 days.

just to let any UK XL/MP/PX owners know, I have now been waiting 12
weeks for a replacement power supply. if I had power that would be
shocking. <ok, its a joke in both senses> - this is truly a useless
situation that emu has left its customers with. thanks for selling
out to creative, emu. in future, I'll stick to roland/yamaha or korg.
