Hello all,

I wonder if any among you are as frustrated as I am dealing with large ensemble 
balances. In orchestral settings, the brass and percussion especially tend to 
be way too quiet, and also seem to have far less of a dynamic range. 

It seems that using any of the mixers (studio view, mixer view, or Garriton 
Aria player view) is of minimal use, as those volumes get overridden by score 
markings. The only way around I have found is to clutter the score with 
invisible dynamics, while disabling the dynamics I know I will need to use for 
real performance. To a lesser extent, I this is a problem with articulations 
(but as those, even hidden, create layout problems, I am living without).

Can anyone give some general advice on dealing with this? Any general 
workarounds (short of creating a separate playback file)?

I guess what would be really cool is first, to consolidate the mixers into one 
place, and then to give mixing control that remains in the memory that works 
independent of score markings. Even better would be if Garriton were fixed to 
be better balanced in the first place!

Thank you in advance,
David Froom
