Isn’t this exactly what I said above?
But you leave out one part. If the midi data from a track played against a project is now moved forward (to the right on the timeline) to sync to the grid, if you play the project back using all the same tracks and VSTi you used to record in the first place, the midi data will now trigger that same VSTi late on the beat, no?
Is it most important for the midi data to look right or to sound right in the context of the project in which it was recorded?
I think everyone can figure out that answer.
Now, if you are recording multiple passes, each with a different VSTi, some of which have the highest PDC latency in the project and you want to create a new midi file of all the parts for export for other uses, then, yes, you will have to adjust all the tracks to the beat. And, for that purpose, presumably Cubase could keep track of some adjustment for each midi track to sync each one individually to the grid.
