Cheers, i actually tried this earlier and it does work. If you set the External Section Midi Volume to OFF (so not 000 to 127) and save the preset, the sliders in Cubase are not effected when you call up the preset. Therefore i am guessing that because i have all of my presets stored with the External Section Midi Volume at 127, i am now going to go thru all the presets and resave them with this parameter turned OFF. A pain in the arse but i can’t see any other way around it. i would have thought that by disabling everything (as we did) within Cubase it would have just simply ignored any incoming Volume Change messages from the Nord, but this is obviously not the case ??
The only thing to watch is that (because the Nord is very interactive and favours lots of live knob twiddling !!) if you accidentally catch the External Section dial it will reset all the Cubase sliders.
Do you think this is the only way around this issue as we have tried everything i can think of !! ??
