Note that the XL-7 starts to load patterns as soon as they're selected and it
plays the initial settings.  If some of the patterns along the way to the one
you want are set to both or external, they could be transmitting to your
gear.

I'm not sure I understand this one, but it might be related to the above
item.  If 000 is empty, and you select 122 (which sets up the presets for
122) then back to 000 (which still has no data), you'll be left with the
presets from 122.  If you want to have an initial buch of settings to start
off with when you have a blank sequence, that would be a good use of a
multisetup.

Mix output and FX settings should be saved with the pattern for every track
that has notes or other data recorded on it.

Again, I'm not sure I understand this.  Might you have some sort of midi
loop?  What does your setup look like and what are you trying to do?
