• If you want Cubase to perform a MIDI reset on stop, select File >
Preferences > MIDI and activate Reset on Stop.
• If you want Cubase to insert a reset event at the end of a recorded part, select
File > Preferences > MIDI and activate Insert Reset Events after Record.
This resets controller data such as sustain, aftertouch, pitchbend, modulation,
and breath control. This is useful if a MIDI part is recorded and the sustain
pedal is still held after stopping recording. Usually, this would cause all
following parts to be played with sustain, as the pedal off command was not
recorded.

MIDI Record Modes
By selecting a MIDI Record Mode you decide what happens to any existing parts
on the track where you are recording. MIDI tracks can play back all events in
overlapping parts. If you record several parts in the same locations or move parts so
that they overlap, you will hear the events in all parts.
• To select a MIDI Record Mode, click the MIDI symbol in the left section of the
Transport panel.
• To close the MIDI Record Mode panel again, click anywhere outside the panel.
