what's the purpose of having a volume faders in the mixer for midi channels when they aren't going to work? I'm using Battery 3 as my sampler. I want to change the volume individually for the kick, snare, hat, and a boatload of other samples that i have in the cells of battery 3

Did you enable multiple outputs from your Battery 3 VSTi? I think most folks would tend to regulate this way rather than with the midi faders.

Alternately, is your MIDI Filter disabling controllers by any chance?

Does Battery even accept CC volume for individual pads? Not velocity tweaks to notes in the stream before they get there, but the master volume for that pad? I had Battery 1 a long time ago but I don't recall.

Volume in the Cubase mixer for midi tends to work on a particular midi channel so it seems that every pad would need to be on a separate midi channel to adjust them with midi faders. Most people would use the audio faders.

The MIDI Channel fader is for velocity level, it works for me with my midi-mixer just fine, however it does not allow me to mute the signal - that need to be done in the attached VST audio channel which is a little annoying actually...
Best regards!

You are referring to the fader on a Cubase MIDI mixer channel?
No, it sends CC#7 to the connect MIDI channel.

Battery 3 does respond to CC#7, but, as stated elsewhere, on a per channel basis, so it would only work on individual cells if they were set to individual MIDI channels.
