Yeah, that would be hard to believe.  That's why there is... =)

Song start (0xFA), song stop (0xFC), song continue (0xFB), and song 
position pointer (0xF2) are all supported.  Most software sequencers 
have the option to transmit these commands along with MIDI clock.  
Many keyboards have this functionality too.  If you have 2 XL-7's, 
you can even slave one to the other.

PS. you will need recent software though; available on the web...
