The drop in volume is consistent across all voices. I should have mentioned when resonance is at minimum there is virtually no volume difference. It gets much more significant as resonance is increased. I just want to confirm if this is the expected behavior and whether there is a way to increase the volume in 4-pole mode and high resonance.

Thanks,
Mike
