Sample volume

Hello guys...

I got a doubt about "Sample output Volume"...
I load a sample...Then, I press "Sampling" button and I go to "sample edit".
Regardless if +12bd option is enable or not, I hear a good volumen (very loud) playing this sample.

Now, the problem is when I use this sample in a "Drum Kit".
Whatever I do, this sample sounds lower (volume) thant the rest of the drum kit.
Trying with level (-99, 0, +99) the result is almost the same (Sample Setup tab).
Trying with Drive the result is almost the same (Sample Parameter tab).

So, is there another thing to do to rise the volumen ?..

Thank you very much.

not sure where you are at since I only convert Song files to audio/WAV in SEQ.

I use the 'audio in sampling ' tab which has a strong volume slider.

Several things to consider.

Samples are reduced in volume by 12dB during playback to reduce the chance of clipping when several timbres are sounding together in a Combi. In the Sampling mode, Recording tab, Recording submenu, there is an "Auto +12dB on" option, which should be enabled for drum type samples. It is only available when Save To (on the same page) is set to RAM.

There is also the Normalize/Level Adj menu command to bring the sample level up to the maximum possible. This feature becomes available from the drop down (top right) menu whilst in the Sample Edit tab, once a sample has been selected and its Start Stop points defined.
