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

I recently bought an XL-7 to replace my MIDI controller and Peavey 
PC-1600 on stage. I had no problems setting it up to work as a 
controller (using multisetups) but I would like to use it as a sound 
module too on some songs. I have an EMU E5000 sampler and love it - 
I started with an ESI-32 way way back and love the emu bank/preset 
arrangement on their samplers but I can not for the life of me 
figure this XL-7 out. All I want to do is be able to create banks 
and assign sounds to midi channels like I do with the sampler. On 
the sampler, When you load a bank, it loads all the presets and 
lines them up on the correct midi channels. In the simplest of 
terms, how would I do this with the XL-7? I want to have one bank 
per song like on the sampler and lay out the sounds I want on the 
correct midi channels and have no sounds respond to the other midi 
channels. It really seems that the internal sequencer is getting in 
the way and that's what is confusing me.... I dont want anything to 
do with this sequncer as I use my computer for arrangments.

thank you in advance,
