AuthorTopic: Any way to boost output level of VSTi

Hello, I need some help trying to find a way to increase the output level of some of the VSTi. When I play them they are too soft. Even when i have the volume full in the instrument and the mixer its still too soft. So is there any way to increase the volume and still maintain the sound qualily. Thanks.

Have you tried to lower the volume of the other instruments?

Which host are you using?

If you're on SX then you could always make the signal hotter via the mixer panel.

a workaround i usually use for this kind of thing is to insert a compressor onto that track, turn all compression values down (i.e. so they are not compressing / affecting the signal) and just use the post / output gain control on the compressor.

The Topaz Gainer did the trick. Thanks. Does it effect the signal quality?

not as far as I know, it's just a thru signal.
