The main way I've ever gotten stuck notes on my XL-7 has been when 
I've mapped a mod wheel to the arpeggio gate param (I think that's 
what it's called -- I mean the param that controls the length of each 
note the arpeggiator generates) and shortened the note length 
abruptly, so the box was fooled into thinking it had already 
note-offed some notes it was still playing.

Or at least that's what it felt like was going on.
