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

i just bought and installed the xl-7 rom into my px-7 a few days 
ago.  at first i just thought it was user error, but i noticed that 
now sometimes (and only sometimes) that when i record automation, it 
will record it to the wrong midi channel.

like recently, i was trying to do a volume fade for channel 6 and as 
i was recording it, channel 6 faded as it should, but upon playback 
channel 2 actually had the volume fade on it.

i can't reproduce it every time but it's happened multiple times 
since installing the new rom. 

so far i haven't noticed any other weird behaviour

i've only had my command station for a little while and i'm still 
learning my way around the menus.  i'm thinking that maybe i need to 
change something to the presets from the xl7 rom for the midi 
channel, but it's not popping out at me when i go through the menus 

anyone have any ideas?

thanks.
