I hadn't realized that these sliders effected RT's only. In fact the help file implies that they work on MIDI as well as RT's, see quote below.

"The Master Volume is a true Master Volume, in that it applies a decibel (dB) boost to the master signal, independent of the tracks volumes. So for example, if you want all Band-in-a-Box songs to be louder, you can simply set the "All Songs" Master volume slider (e.g. to +6 dB) and this boost will apply to audio output from all instruments (MIDI and audio) for all songs."

In spite of the above it clearly doesn't effect MIDI tracks and gives me what I am looking for.

The "All Songs" is a powerful slider. Once you move it and save for one song then every song you ever load is effected.

Thanks Matt
