when i realized that the preset parameters get saved in the multisetup i 
started a new setup with every new track, 

>>>Preset parameters are NOT saved as part of a Multi though.  A multi 
will remember what Preset was assigned to each channel, but then so will a 
Pattern.  Better off just saving the Pattern. <<<

now, if i write a total different multi [lets say to sequenz external 
gear] and if i later go back to a 
pattern i made before the XX7 did not recognize the multi used originally 
by the pattern. 

>>>That's because Patterns have no way of knowing what Multi was used at 
that time, and it's irrelevent anyway. <<<

It uses different presets and fx parameters.Whats the right way to save 
patterns and multis to be able to acsess them at any time?

>>>That's because Patterns also store this info, so everytime you recall a 
Pattern, it will ALWAYS use the Pattern settings.  Multi info is only 
recalled when you Restore a previously saved Multi, otherwise Pattern have 
priority.  Basically, if you're just writing Patterns, then save the 
Patterns and don't even worry about Multis. Here's a quick rundown, this 
is by no means a complete list though:

PATTERN DATA
- Presets assignments for each channel.
- Effects Types.
- Effect Send amount.
- Sequence data (notes, CC's, sysex, aftertouch, etc)
- Any other setting you make while in Pattern Edit (ie, output).

MULTI DATA
- All of the above.
- Screen contrast
- Midi Menu settings.
- Custom arps.
- Controllers menu settings.
- All global settings.

So you can see, that Multi's save a lot more information than Patterns, 
but in terms of making regular tracks and such, just saving the Pattern 
should be sufficient.  Multi's come in handy when you want to set up the 
Controller Knobs to control different synths externally, and you need 
different CC's for each knob depending on the synth.  Just one example, 
there's literally hundreds more.  I think this is covered in the FAQ too.
