Hm.. If I understand correctly, you recorded something in MIDI in cubase that in cubase sounds like Piano. Then you export the midi to your synth and it plays a different sound - such as say violin or something else?
Either way: the concept behind GM is that all manufacturers comply to the same intruments on the same number. So, if piano is 1 on Roland, it will be 1 on Korg, on Yamaha, and so on - as long as they comply to GM. NOw, the piano sound will obviously varry - it's not like all synth pianos will sound the same. The only thing that manufacturer has to do is make the sound close enough to piano (or whatever instruments). In other words, when you play a midi piano part, you should not expect to hear a drum (unless it's fuqed up).
Here's a list of all MIDI instruments in numerical order:
http://www.midi.org/about-midi/gm/gm1sound.shtml#instrumenthttp://www.midi.org/about-midi/gm/gm1sound.shtml#instrument
That site also has crapload of info about MIDI.
But in cubase, record MIDI part, open MIDI List Editor and make sure that the patch number is set to the desired GM sound. Using the table above, if you want to hear piano (or like sound) on GM-compatible device, you should set it to: 1, 2, or 3. Keep in mind that in some cases the count begins not from 1 but from 0. So, in cubase if you wanted to set up GM patch 2, you'd actually have to enter 1. For 3, it would be 2, for 4 it would be 3, and so on.
ok?
