Nope, if something comes from the PC's MIDI out, you'll hear both
your AN1x and your 707. Set the AN1x to different receive channals
(for both scenes) than the 707.

You probably don't have the PC echo MIDI signals from its in to
its out.

Try connecting the MIDI out of the AN1x to the MIDI in of the 707.
If you still don't hear anything, you have a problem.
