I'll pass on that one -- it might be one that requires sysex to
display song info, or else requires it to be in a specific slot in the
file, rather than the Cakewalk "Title" area. I'm fairly sure that
chronological uses the order that the files are created on the disk --
you may need to write files one at a time to get the right result.

QY70 uses an MU15 (I think) or so synth, whose extended drum map
will be different in GM and XG mode than the SB128 (which I believe
uses a compact Roland GS map). Simple solution would be to mix your
songs using the QY70 as output, using the instrument map it uses, or
using one of the XG drum kits (with an XG reset to set it up) to get
additional sounds.
Different synths have different sounds, especially once you get
outside of the GM range. You have to take this into account when
mixing your files, to set them up for the synth they'll be played on.
