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

I never got this figured out ... all my .ins match my presets in the 
MP7 ... I have the Composer...World and Drum ROMS ... .ins files 
where made with the PROTEUM software and match up perfectly with the 
BOX.

i switch banks in SONAR and everything works fine in the USER 
BANK ... it just doesnt switch ROMS hen I make the change in SONAR.

I have just been saving MULTIS in the box and recalling them after I 
load a song in SONAR 6 PE.

Any Clues I would REALLY like to figure this out.

Thanks !
