I’m new to using Soundbox in Cubase. Does anyone know why the various volume layers are moving, even when I’m not playing or playing back recordings?
It happens with any instrument loaded. When it happens, I can’t adjust the volume of any layer, either directly, or using Quick Controls in Cubase.
I have tried disconnecting my MIDI inputs one at a time, but the problem remains, even with them all disconnected.
I have a video showing the issue, but as new user I’m not allowed to upload it yet.

Thanks for any help.

Hi, the preset must be using the vector movement controls, you can simply turn it off. Here’s some more information about the vector section:
