I always train the same, cutting or bulking...
6-8 reps on most movements, some 8-10 (calves, abs mostly)...
Always using heavy weight...

Bulking:
I switch between High volume/ Low volume. I really do both. Intensity very high. I've done as little as 5 sets for a back workout and up to 20. I like to switch it up. Reps are between 5-12. I try to do 2 light cardio sessions a week.
Cutting:
I reduce my split to only 3 times a week add 3 days of cardio. I use high volume, supersets but with low reps. Very little rest between sets. I like to superset very different bodyparts, Chest/Quads for example, Front Squats superset with Incline Bench press. I keep the first exercise of my workout VERY heavy to failure and I back off the weight for the other exercises and increase reps. Really brings out vascularity. I stick to compound movements but I do a few more cable movements:
Example: Workout 1: Chest/Quads
Front Squats/ Incline Bench press
Leg presses/ Dumbbell press
Barbell Hack squats/ DB flyes
Leg extensions/ Cable crossovers
Workout 2: Back/Hams/Calves
Wide grip chins/ STL deadlift
Barbell rows/ Barbell lunges
Lat pulldowns/ Donkey Calf raises(Rest pause)
Cable rows/ Calf raises
