Volume for Style edit

[Snorkum]

I like to adjust the overall volume of INTRO2 without effecting the other elements. Is thee a way to do this. I seem to have a hard time.

Yes. Use the Expression controller for each track to adjust the loudness for that specific element.

This might help:

Thank you. I will try this this evening.

Sam:

Than you very much. This worked perfectly.

Hi Sam,
After watching the instruction video, how about if I want to increase the volume, when I select control, the value loudness appear on the screen is max 127; I can decrease but can not go higher 127.

Yes, that's the max but remember you could still use the volume control in Style mode as well...It's just the volume fader in that mode affects the loudness of a track across all elements.

But if the expression is already 127, and the volume is 127 and you want it louder, you are going to have to go into each track, and bump up the velocities...

That doesn't work all the time depending on what kind of tone those higher velocity produce. In some cases higher velocity trigger a totally different articulation. If that's the case, I would look into other tracks as well. Maybe they don't need to be as loud. If your style is just too loud, then you could probably adjust the mix for the rest of the tracks which will give you some headroom for soft/quiet tracks. (It could also be that the velocity values are just too low)

Also, if you have empty tracks available, you can experiment with doubling the track and assigning a different sound?

So you gotta check all these possible factors. Most of the time a combination of parameters produces the most natural results.

Correct... but it's worth trying out before you do anything else.
