Does anyone who has built a custom sound set know if it is possible to lower
the volume of the recorded sounds, so they play quietly even at full volume?
I have one sound set, can't recall which, which had one of the sounds so
soft I almost never heard it. But it was there.
This would just be a work-around, of course. There should be a way to adjust
the levels without messing with the basic sounds.
