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

--Thanks Steve ... Hopefully you can re-send it later ... i would love
to see your input.

Ok so here' s where I'm at ... i downloaded the PatchPro and created
.ins from my actual MP7 unit and ROMS ... I then loaded in Sonar...
All show up and are perfect ... The problem I am having now is that
the the MP is not switching ROMS ... I can call up a preset in Sonar
for say World ROM bazouki on 012 bank 3 on channel 4 and the mp
switches preset and bank but not ROM ... I have to manually change the
ROM on the MP7.

When I close Sonar it remembers the patches I set but on reload it
does not recall the proper ROM on the MP7 ... seems to just revert to
slot 1 ... which is Mo Phat User/MP7 sounds.
