IIRC, i actually only ever had the problem when the sequencer _was_ running.
I'm not sure about it not happening when the sequencer wasn't running,
 I do definatly know that it has happened when i had the sequencer

A thought on this.  does changing the patch on the XL7 send an  "All

Is your patch very busy? as in, lots of control signal routing and
different layers?
perhaps the processor is dropping midi message "packets" due to being
overloaded??
