Recording drum patterns with Spark

I’m in the very early stages of leaning to use Cubase, and I itching to start recording. The first thing I want to record is drum tracks. I have Arturia Spark and a Sparkle controller. I have recorded drum patterns in Spark, that I want to use. I can record them OK, using Spark in vst mode, but I can’t figure out how to sync the two together. This results in the drums running off the beat. Is there an easy way to do this?

Hi, you need to enable sync to host, by checking the HOST button:

Now, It depends on how you want things to be, for example, I use sync while checking my beats in context, however, when I’m happy with them, I go to the SEQUENCER tab and click on Export MIDI File so that I can place the MIDI data to my project.
