If that means that peak alarm on the mixer and on the Motu results in
a weak signal in Logic than it is not a normal situation. What
Maurits told about relatively low levels applies to a well working
record chain but your chain seem to lose a couple of dB's somewhere.
What if you plug a mic directly into the Motu? Same result?
I don't know that interface but the website says that there is a
mixer software included. Does CueMix show you the output level and is
it considerably lower then what you feed? You have probably a
misconfiguration there - unnecessary routing with weird panning,
wrong phase switching or something like that which eats up your level?
Try to set the complete CueMix to a neutral status with no routing at
all. There might be a reset function. If the situation does not
change switch the input from +4 to -10 db or vice versa, whatever
applies. Something is supposed to change, hopefully into the right
direction ...

+4 dB if you have the choice. But you don't have always a choice
because you have to match the levels of the connected devices.
