Howdy,

Well, my "conductor's volume" hypothesis just got shot down - both files have a "Conductor's volume" of 96.

However, I did notice one difference between the two - the file that changes the volume of your MIDI organ has a "MIDI mode" setting of "GS." The file that does not change your MIDI organ volume has no such setting. I've used this tool (GNMidi, available for free trial and purchase at http://www.gnmidi.com/) to reset the file to "GM" (General MIDI). Please try out the attached file and see if it now plays at a less than maxed out volume.

Do let me know if that works or not. I'd be interested to know, as I've never had this issue come up before.
