Is anyone else auditioning some of the new hot styles, that have both real tracks and midi instruments, and finding it hard to blend all the tracks so they can be separately heard? =BSYBS_S.sty bass fusion with tenor sax uses a midi finger elect. bass and real tracks sax and real drum. It seems to me that whenever I load any of the demo songs for these types of styles that the real instruments are massively hotter - louder than any of the midi tracks. So, invariably I fiddle with the track volumes boosting midi tracks, trimming back real tracks and trying to find all the instruments in the mix... In this style, the midi volume settings for the bass and rhodes piano start up well below 64 when I scan the volume levels in the piano track midi window. I was getting frustrated trying to boost the floor level of all midi notes without wrecking note to note volume differences and accents by editing the midi tracks in the style editor, where you select a track/instrument and then click Pattern and select boost/adjust volume for all patterns by this much thinking that would raise the floor level, and I'm not succeeding in doing that. What seems to happen is the lower level midi notes get raised to the higher level notes, none higher than around 64! I know there's the midi note editor, still that's a killer for the burden.... Is there a way to boost the "floor" volume level of midi notes, for all midi notes in a track that's working? Thanks...
