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

A things that I think that would be cool as hell (even if probably 
not at all possible) and would make the command station the best 
thing ever... is a USb Smartmedia reader that'd allow you to save 
midi files (or atleast load)so you don't have to drag around a laptop 
to shows for back up. And, even better that could allow you to load 
wave files to a flash rom card! Maybe this is Emus next proyect, the 
Sp1600? 


Btw, I have a question... The command stations has an effect return 
feature, right? So I could route and external signal from, say, a 
Keyboard? I'm going to be without my mixer for about a week and if 
this is not possible I'm going to have to get cheap mixer in the mean 
time...

thanks...

>>>Can't do it, especially via an OS update.  The USB port on the XX-7's 
is only a slave port, the XX-7's can't be a master USB device, and thus 
control exteranl devices plugged into it.  It's a hardware thing. <<<

>>>Yep, the Alt Outs also function as send and returns, the diagrams 
explaining the process are in the beginning of the manual. <<<

As long as we're fanataszing about a new OS, here's one feature I'd 
like to see:

A section of memory devoted to uploadable/downloadable/program 
changeable/user definable plug-ins.

Any user would be able to write 'code' to add functionality, users 
could swap plug-ins, etc.

With such an architecture, users could design and implement their own 
functionality.

Just a thought.

If I wanted to get an EOS Ultra sampler so I could make my own sounds for
the XL7, how much do the Flash simms cost?

Has anyone had any experience doing this?

This is a great idea !!! I don't know if it's possible but it would 
be awesome to have this feature on XX7 !! Welcome to the 'new O.S 
Group' Steve !
P.S : I realized that neither Aaron nor any other EMU folks has told 
us that 2.0 would be the last O.S !!? They did not even confirmed 
this rumour that was just spread among XX7 user's group in fact !!!

Thanks for the comment.  If it happens, I'd be willing to write code 
so that the big data knob can be used to send bank/program changes to 
external midi gear via in a special set-up utlity plug-in.
