how are you recording it?  what sort of interface are you using?
because if you're using something like a single USB interface to
send the MIDI clock and receive the incoming audio, then you might
be having issues there.  the interface may be giving priority to
high-bandwidth jobs (audio) and low priority to low-bandwidth
jobs (MIDI signals).  does the timing drift when you're not recording?
i.e. when you're just syncing the MD to Cubase and running the
two at once?

(BTW, I can't believe that a sequencer as expensive as Cubase can't
be slaved to any other clock.)
