There are a couple of ways to do this - before doing either, make a copy of the style - that way if you screw something up, you haven't lost the original.

First load the style and then open the StyleMaker (Ctrl+Shift+F9)

The easy way (not advised):

Click the Misc button ... check the Allow Volume Changes With Style button ... adjust the volumes -- WARNING, the volumes will stay high for the next style so if you do this, you have to check the box on all the other styles

OK the hard way:

For each instrument, Click Pattern in the StyleMaker menu bar ... Choose VELOCITY adjust by this much (ALL PATTERNS) ... When the dialog box appears, type in a number and click OK ... repeat for the other instruments.

My advice before doing the above: First check a number of patterns by clicking on them and then clicking the V button to see how loud they are - remember you can't exceed 127 or you will lose dynamic response of the pattern. Also, do this a little at a time, depending on your synth, a little change in velocity can make a big change in the output.

Why VELOCITY? Velocity is related to volume. In the early days when end-user synths used mostly an organ type keyboard, the synth measured the time it took from the moment you pressed the key until it bottomed out. Shorter times meant you pressed the key faster (thus velocity) and if you pressed the key faster, you must have pressed it harder (as in a piano), so the sound must be louder.

On better synths, velocity relates to more than volume, the most common being brightness. Most instruments get brighter when struck, plucked, bowed, or blown harder.
