Yes.  You connect a midi cable from the midi output on the XL-7 to the 
midi input on the virus.  Then you'd need to set the track you you want to 
use to control the virus to EXT (external) so that it doesn't play it's 
internal sound on that channel.  If you wanted to use the Virus keyboard 
to play your notes, you could do that too, and connect a midi cable from 
the Virus midi out to the XL-7 midi in.  The XL-7 is very flexible when it 
comes to sequencing external gear.

So riddle me this, if I get the X-7, I can use it as a sequencer for 
an external keyboard such as the virus-kc? 

How will this work?
