oh ok i gotcha i was thinking you wanted the xl-7 to sequence fl
studio wich i'm sure can be done in some ways...

ok just pick a midi device and port number in the midi otions that you
want to send from fl studio to the xl-7 then setup the xl to receive
on that port. on the xl-7 there will be options like receive midi
timecode or external song start/stop set the later to accepted(i just
made the former up but i'm sure you get the idea).

you can also set the xl to receive program change.

back to fl studio, make sure you select an output port and a sync port
wich should be fine on the same port and make sure you pick a port
number for the output.

close midi settings and go back to the options dropdown menu and
enable master sync and midi outputt. enable remote control if you
still want to send controller messages back to fl.

next click on the channels dropdown menu and then select the midi out
generator. assing it to the channel you want it to control on the xl
and make sure the port number(the little box on the topp right hand
corner of the plugin) is set to the numbeer you've specified in the
midi settings menu.

then you should be good to go :)

good luck
