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

Hi Guys can you help me out .... I have everything loaded up but the 
MP doesent recall patches when I open a project in Sonar 5 ... I have 
a Yamaha RS7000 with .ins in Sonar at it works fine.

On the MP I have to scroll to the proper rom and see the patches as I 
make changes in Sonar from the .ins files ... They are acurate and 
match each other perfectly.

The only way I have been working around this is saving a multi of the 
song on the MP and restoring it ... But i know there must be a way 
that I can't figure out ... any help or guidance ??

If I create a pattern in the MP and save it via e-loader and then 
open it up in Sonar it asks if I want to send sysex data and I say 
OK !!! ... The MP plays all of the presets fine.

Just to be clear the problem I am having is when I write and go 
fishing for sounds From/In Sonar .... They don't recall on the MP7 
when I re-open in Sonar.

I have Sonar 5 with an MP7 with 4 ROMs (POP,DRUM,PHATT,WORLD) an XL7 
with just the XL rom and an RS7000 .... I also have another MP7 that 
I use to control Sonar and the soft syths.
