Will the MP7 allow me to send program changes to my other gear 
(EA1,ER1,DX200)so that I could switch all of them at the same time 
just by switching the MP7?
Thanks and I hope this hasn't been asked a million times already....

Yep.  Program changes (as well as just about every other MIDI event)
can be stored in a pattern or song and can target external gear on any
(or all) of the 32 external channels.

Yes of course but can it do the electribe nrpn program changes?  If it is
embedded into the smf file and imported will it keep it or filter it out?

Oh, I am not really worried about the nrpns. What I am actually 
wanting to do is use all these things live, so that I can start the 
MP7, which will start all the other grooveboxes, and then hit a 
button which will change the patterns on the Korgs and Yamaha - mot 
that I necessarily want to do this in the song mode, but just when I 
switch patterns on the MP7. This is important to me because while I 
can set up both Korgs to change using just one knob, I still have to 
hit the Yamaha at the same time, and since I am doing this one man 
thing, this is kind of clumsy; I should also say that I don't want to 
use a computer live, which is why this is attractive to me.
Couple of more questions, if you don't mind: can I import standard 
midi files into the MP7? And am I correct in assuming that the 
arpeggiators will work on my external gear?
thanks much, this really helps me spend my $$$$$$.

Absolutely.  Nrpns are just a series of three controllers, so yes
they'll be editable fine.  The only thing that you can't edit directly
is sysex, though if you import an SMF with sysex (even non-Emu sysex)
in it, it will keep it and play it back just fine.  If you put it at
tick 0, it'll even play only the first time, not every loop.

This is good to know, since sysex playback (I can edit elsewhere) was 
one of my last remaining concerns about the XL-7...you've addressed 
the biggest ones with OS 2.0.

Thanks Aaron.

May I ask how you place the sysex data at zero?
Is this somthing you do on the MP/XL7?  
Or would you do this in a software program.... -Thanks Wesley D.

as far as i´ve understood it, you must use a software programm.
just move the sysex data to the first possible tick. the best way is to  
use the list-editor / event editor in your sequencer programm.

btw, i think the possibilty to play back sys-ex data is something for  
the faq.

Thanks for the tip.The thing is that in Sonar Sysex data is normally not visable.  I think it may just be inbedded in the sequence upon exportation.The event list, I didn't think to look there. Thanks again, Wesley D.www.evolbeats.com
