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

I'm at my wits end. It seems like I can't import a sequence into the 
xl-7 without a ton of bugs cropping up; tracks don't play, though 
their lights will come on, they play but are assigned to the wrong 
pad, apparently erasing the original pads contents, the pattern is 
the wrong length etc, etc Never a dull moment. There's little rhyme 
or reason to the changes either - there's no way to figure out what 
will happen the next time. 

I'm using logic audio to edit the sequences, and right now doing 
nothing more to them than editing the velocities, and removing a 
couple of notes. I'm at my wit's end, since writing on the XL takes 
10 times as much work as using a real sequencer, but 'fixing' a 
pattern that has been exported is so much more work, and messes with 
my head.

Perhaps logic is the culprit. Has anyone had any better luck with 
other sequencers? I'm thinking about a switch back to Cakewalk 
anyway, since I own an older version I could probably upgrade. (Or 
perhaps it's time to dust off that old copy of 3.0 instead :>) What 
do you guys at emu use?
