Each MIDI-track has its own level (0-127), then the program has its own level (measured in dB's), finally the pads also have their own level (except for midi and plugin programs). In Main mode, open the channel strip (tap the eye icon) to change the program level or track level.
Search the manual for "program channel strip" or "track channel strip" for more info.
Sorry, i have to reopen that discussion because i'm facing the same discussed problem.
The difference between program level and track level within "program channel strip" is clear to me.
BUT:
It only works for Keygroup programs, not for plugin programs.
From my point of view,
changing the track volume of one track should never apply to a different track - even if the same instrument is used.
It's clear, that changing the PLUGIN volume in one track affects all tracks using this plugin.
Setting a track to MUTE is also an attribute specified per track - and here it works: setting a part of a track to mute, does not automatically mute all other tracks using the same instrument.
So
why does it work with MUTE, but not with VOLUME?
Every attribute found in Track->mixer should only affect the track, not the instrumen plugin:
- Volume
- Pan
- Mute
- Solo
For me this seems to be a bug?!
In my song with two tracks having the same "fabric piano" plugin instrument, i can not change the volume for one of the piano tracks without affecting the other one - this is a massive drawback since the workaround (duplicating the plugin) is not possible for me since i have already reached the max number of possible plugins.
Updating from 2.11.4 to 2.11.6 did not help.
