As my intentions for the XL-7 were to use it live,I've found this 
"feature"to be a potentially serious purchase consideration.
If I wasn't so sold on it's other capabilities I'd have to pass.
Of course I don't have the manual with me right now,but my little brain is 
trying to justify this away with a work-around.e.g.:

If the xx-7 can be playing "anything-in-any-mode" through the main outs,
while routing the "grid" to the sub-outs(or phones?),then I could audition 
the subs in "cue" on my mixer,
and not worry about unwanted/unintentional sounds triggering through the 
house.(basically I cue everything anyway...)

How'bout GRD-MUTE,just for certain eventualities.
And/or GRD-AUD.I realize this appears to some, as being the same as on/off.I 
find AUD/MUTE more sound-specific...

Best,
g.
