Robbie, thanks a lot for the detailed explanation. I’ll see which way works the
best for my application. Thanks again.

Hi Steve!
You select the track by pressing enter and then select the audio within by
pressing j shift-k. Then press alt-c for the Effects menu and A for Amplify.
Enter again to open the Amplify effect. The Amplification field will contain
the dB value required to achieve 0 db, the highest possible volume before
clipping occurs. Note that this may be a negative value if the track is louder
than 0 dB. You need to enter a negative value such as -5 to lower the volume.
Press enter to confirm.
You can also call up the Gain dialogue by pressing shift-g. Enter a dB value
and press enter. This can be done without selecting the track and even during
playback. It may seem the easier option, but it does not prevent clipping or
give you an indication of the current volume. Also its setting has no bearing
on the Amplify effect. I usually only use it to determine a target volume
during playback, then reset it to 0 and apply the respective db value in
Amplify.
Cheers! Robbie

The subject line says it all. I can't figure out how to adjust volume on each
track. My harmonies are too loud. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve.
