Copied block of tracks over 8 bars and duplicated them but totally different volumes!!

Hi All

Weird effect I am experiencing here - probably due to the fact I am an idiot, but hey ho.

I created three tracks over 8 bars using VC, and an additional percussion track using Maschine MIKRO. I wanted to simply duplicate those 8 bars from each of the tracks, and simply copied and pasted them to commence straight after one another. However, the sound from the copied set is hugely different in volume (on all three VC tracks) than the original.

Am I missing something here? Can anyone advise why this might be happening please?

I am happy to post to soundcloud if required, but please bare in mind, I am crap and nothing compared to the standard of you guys.

Heyyy JohnBurns,

great description about me, I'm a first class idiot!
Nice to see that I'm not the only one that is so amazing with his stuff
But what DAW do you use?

Dear John,
Do the volume faders to the left of the plugin change in the copied patterns by any chance? If not, did you use automation in Logic and do you see any automation changes on the following 8 bar patterns you copied from the beginning?

Best wishes,
Jörg Hüttner
