Not sure how it's not working... but the master volume knob shouldn't really hinder you very much... unless it's stuck on 0. Ideally, you'll want to leave the master volume all the way up, because your amplitude based modulations may not behave as you expect by having the master volume attenuating the final output signal. Luckily the XL-7 has multiple ways of controlling the volume of tracks/channels/presets etc which should give you the flexibility to find the balance you're looking for.
