Hi Andreas, Nice to see you on this list. Was it my recommendation earlier that led you to start exploring DirectMusic? :-) I hope so. I don't know of a way to set a single volume value that is "global" for the segment, but not "global" for the whole performance. If anybody else knows, I'd be interested to find out this too.
