Volume

[Sherry C]

Hi,

There are a few places in the signal chain where the volume can be affected.

1. The volume slider on Notation Musician/Composer's toolbar.
2. Your soundcard's MIDI volume setting.
3. Your computer's Sound/Volume control
4. If you use any kind of sound library, the volume control on that - which can also contain an individual instrument control as well as a master volume.
5. If you've checked all the above items and are still having problems with the volume, then it may be that a file you have has a low volume for all the instruments (a rare but previously seen condition). You can use the Staff Setup to check and edit the numeric volume levels for all staves. If the setting says "var", then you can either set a numeric value between 1 and 127, or use Composer's Graph Over Notes to increase the overall volume of any of the volume graphs in the file.

ttfn,
Sherry
