One of your problems was:

The technical term from "instruments" is "presets" (in E-mu speak) or
"programs" (in MIDI speak, as in "program change") or "patches" (in old
analog synth guy speak).

In any case, go to the second screen under the Song Edit menu.  You'll
be on a screen EVENT SOURCES.  Cursor to the 2nd line and change to
"preset" and select "patterns only".

This may or may not solve your problem.  First step again is to
definitely get 2.00.  Oh, and if you're one of the folks for which it's
"OS-update-but-can't-figure-it-out-Day" =), make sure both MIDI in AND
out is connected, and boot your XL-7 holding down the cursor till it
says "Searching for OS..."
