Pluging on Quad Cortex and plugin on Computer sounds different

i was making some test yesterday and I did the following configuration:
Configurate QC as a audio interface for Audio in throught USB:
one signal unprocessed and another stereo, processed.
In the DAW Logic in my case, I stablished the output throught my Motu M4 and studio monitors.

Then I use the same preset from PLINI Plugin and it sounds different… it should sound the same… in my opinion… so am I doing something wrong?
I must say that for reasons I dont understand the difference is not much in tone but in volume and compression (Pluging on Computer is louder and also sound like less compressed…)
It seems to be like everything throught QC is EQ somehow… I dont have any EQ or global EQ active.

If someone knows something please share!!!

Thansk everyone

I think you have to lower the input on the QC by -2,8, if I remember correctly, when using it as a audio interface for the plugins.
Then you should get the right sounds.
plugin on QC -0
Plug-in on PC -2,8
