Hello! I recorded a 16-track song on my Yamaha MOXF8 and wanted to mix it down. To do this, I saved the song in SMF (Standard MIDI File) format onto a USB drive. I then connected the MOXF8 to Cubase 13 Artist and created a new project, adding a VST instrument track for the MOXF. After importing the SMF file, the MOXF synchronized with Cubase, displaying all 16 tracks of the recording. I switched off the local control from the MOXF’s utility menu to prevent MIDI conflicts. The MOXF has two volume sliders: the master volume slider and the DAW level slider. Currently, the DAW level slider is set to zero. When I increase the DAW level slider, I can hear double sounds from the song, which I understand is normal behavior in this setup.
I wanted to add effects to some tracks, which is why I moved the song to Cubase. However, I noticed that the song is louder during playback in Cubase, but it sounds quieter after exporting. I’m not sure what I might have missed, and I need help solving this issue. Could you guide me on what I should do to fix this?
I’m not sure where to post this question—should I post it in the YamahaSynth Forum or the Cubase Forum?
Thanks!
