Wow, I'm impressed how well you were able to make each melody voice sound distinct and clear. Is there a reason why the baa's are so quiet? Also, are they samples? It's a little weird having them be samples whereas I'm pretty sure everything else is waveform... or noise, but I couldn't imagine making a convincing baa sound without samples.

[@UDUC]

thank you so much!! all thanks to volume controls lol the "baah" sounds are quieter because they are dpcm samples and, still being new to dpcm and samples as a whole, i have very little knowledge on making them louder. i could probably mess with them a bit in audacity to make them louder before importing them, but that's about all i can think of

@@UDUC You might want to consider if they have been normalized. Normalization is the process of taking a sample and amplifying it to reach the sound ceiling, which means it is amplified as much as it can be without clipping. There's certainly a tool to do that in Audacity. It might be too loud, but waveforms are usually normalized from their source, so it should be familiar to bring the amplification down from there.

@@oneilmw thank you! i'll be sure to do that in the future!
