    I'm not the person to ask about rewire, but I'm guessing you should follow normal gain staging procedures.

    That means

    1.Always set recording levels so the signal is -18 dB avarage and maximum -10 db peak, what ever happens first.
    If you have already recorded some beats too loud or too low, raise or lower the volume so you get the levels right in FL. Then send them to cubase.
    2. Record your vocals at -18 db avarage and -10db peak.
    3. Mix, making sure you are not clipping any track FX, master FX or the master fader. Many mastering houses want you to deliver at least 6db headroom. That means no peaks above -6dbFS on the master fader.
    4. Master, depending on your release destination you may have diffent levels but a good avarage would be -14 LUFS with peaks at -1 dB True Peak. This should do it on Spotify, iTunes and everywhere else. If you are going to CD then you can do go a bit louder. Masters for club use could be pushed even hotter.

    Hope this helps

    At this stage - when the instrumental is done and only need to mix the vocals - you don't rewire. You export everything to audio and mix the stems using a single daw (cubase). Then export to a stereo file and master the stereo file (cubase).
