some of the quick edits i made change back to their default. why does this

If you make any changes to the Quick Edit Knobs, you need to save the 
Preset, not the Pattern.

ok so everytime I use the quick edit knobs I need to save the preset as well 
as the pattern?  Another question I have is about the appegiators.  If I 
change  the M set do I have to save it or will it save it automatically? 
thanks

There is only one possible set of master arpeggiator settings so by default
any changes you make to these are remembered.  There is no "save" operation
for them.

One additional comment on the QuickEdit knobs.  When you edit a preset using
QuickEdit and switch to another track with a different synthesizer channel
being used you will loose those changes.  This is also true of any edits at
all done to the preset.  There is only a single edit buffer used for the
entire XX-7.  So something as simple as hitting the TRACK/CHANNEL plus/minus
buttons can cost you your edits.  So if your doing a lot of tweaking and
switching tracks back and forth you need to get in the habit of hitting
SAVE/COPY before changing tracks/channels.

I have another question regarding saving a preset... say I tweek kit-1 and go 
to save preset.. I save it as kit-1 under user.. what happens if I decide to 
tweek kit-1 again in the future on a different pattern..  Will these changes 
be distinguished in each pattern or will the changes just be on the last save 
I did only?

If you tweak and save Preset, regardless of that the Pattern is, the new 
Preset definitely overrides the older one (which will be gone forever). 
Because of this, I always rename and save my Presets to a new location if 
I use them in a different Pattern.  There's nothing worse than working on 
a new pattern and tweaking a bunch of presets only to realize you 
accidentally saved over a Preset that was being used in another pattern. 

Another reason I back up my Presets to SX when I'm done working on the 
XL-7, at least that way I can always go back and reload the last saved 
bank I had.  I do wish Emu would come up with a more elegant solution 
though, being able to do it all in E-Loader would be SOOO much easier! 
Especially if you could pick the Presets you have saved, and choose where 
they will download to in the XX-7 like you can with Patterns.
