All About Musio Volume

  • Updated

Here are some common questions and answers about the volume in Musio:

 

Why is Musio overall on the quieter side?

Musio is designed to run at a slightly quieter volume by default. The volume slider on each instrument is set to -6 dB and this is to allow headroom when using multiple instruments at once.

 

How to Increase Volume in Musio

If you’d like to make Musio louder, you have a few options:

  1. Manually adjust the volume slider
    • Increase the volume slider on each instrument to 0 dB for maximum output.
  2. Change the default volume for all instruments
    • To avoid adjusting each instrument manually, you can change the default volume:
      • Open Musio Connect (Musio’s companion app).
      • Go to Settings.
      • Under Plugin/Standalone, find the option for Initial Instrument Volume.
      • Set it to 0 dB so all new instruments load at a higher volume.
  3. Use a Gain plugin in your DAW
    • If you still need more volume, you can add a Gain plugin to the track where Musio is loaded in your DAW to boost the signal.

If you notice that an instrument is so quiet that it’s nearly or completely inaudible, please reach out to our Support team at support@musio.com so we can investigate.

 

How to Automate Volume in Musio

To automate Musio’s volume in your DAW:

  1. Draw in CC7 automation data on the instrument track where Musio is loaded.
  2. CC7 directly controls Musio’s volume slider, allowing you to adjust volume changes dynamically.
