I 2 have a similar problem when using the XX7 as a "slave" while 
recording in realtime for some reason the preset information switches 
on me or something else changes during the recording and it messes 
everything up ... I assume it is the CC sysex information from the 
other device triggering something on the xx 7 CC sysex - how do we 
turn this off (make it just stay as is) during recording ?
