❑ Have you connected or disconnected the USB cable while Cubase AI is running?
Doing so can sometimes cause the Windows output level to be reset to its default level.
Check and raise the output level if necessary.
The level meter
doesn’t show the
output signal level.
❑ Are the PFL switches for the channels you are not using turned on?
