Before that I increased the volume on the bass, and that made a more pronounced bass, but omg that clipping...

It can also change the instrument's timbre a bit

But thank you for all the responses! I'll have to try a lot of that (and the audacity technique looks cool too). Also, I never thought of bringing down the bass level to 2 and bring everything else down as-well. Guess, sort of like a minimalist thing?

Lately I've been trying to mix everything lower, but volume levels creep up over time. Usually I'll write a song that ends up around the A level, but I like to drop my entire Wave channel down to Volume 2 so that the kicks stand out a lot (at 3); this means I basically go through the entire song again after I've written it and bring all the volume levels down as much as I can. I wrestle back and forth with it a lot.

Also, when you're making your Wave instruments try changing the volume in the synth screen to 80, it boosts the whole thing up.

Oooh! Thank you. I will try this. Hopefully this is the answer I've been looking for.

But yeah you can manually edit track volume there by dragging and dropping pretty much.

No, it's called the envelope tool, located as the top middle button in the top left of the gui smile

That let's you increase the volume, too? I thought it only decreased it. hmmm

It does have a feature where you drag the volume down for fading in/out manually. I suppose the "Amplify" feature is what you are referring to, though? Right?

There needs to be a program where you can pick a volume level and just scale everything back/up to that level; yes I know I just described a compressor, but it'd be cool to have a wave editor with a visual interface that just has handles on the volume and on transients and lets you drag them around. Maybe I'll invent that at become a billionaire.

the only semimagical thing i've seen like that was http://izotope.com/products/audio/ozone/download.asp

and it was about five years ago.

Works sometimes, but not for me. I've had nothing but bad experiences when messing with the synth volume on a perfect wav sound
