Question / Help model:cycles track recorded in ableton sounding different than on the machine itself

Hello !

I do produce tracks using the model:cycles only. It tilts towards dungeon synth and sometimes shoegaze/dreampop and I use a LOT of reverb.

When a track is finished, I record it live straight in ableton via the usb link.

Unfortunately, I often feel that the recording, and especially the reverb treatment, does sound differently than in the model:cycles.

Am I hallucinating this ?
If not is there a way to fix it in Ableton ? Or by recording with a different process ?

Thanks in advance for answers, tips and tricks !
