So excited to be working with Decker! I couldn’t find it listed elsewhere, is there a way to control the default volume a sound, or multiple sounds play at in a deck?

There isn't currently any kind of volume control; volumes are effectively "baked into" the amplitude of a sound's samples.

A slightly clumsy workaround would be to make a copy of an existing sound on the fly and use sound.map[] to rescale its samples. Assuming the deck contains a sound clip named "sosumi":

on play_scaled name vol do
  r:-128+range 256
  play[sound[deck.sounds[name].encoded].map[r dict floor vol*r]]
end
on click do
  play_scaled["sosumi"   1] # normal  volume
  sleep["play"]
  play_scaled["sosumi"  .5] # half    volume
  sleep["play"]
  play_scaled["sosumi" .25] # quarter volume
  sleep["play"]
  play_scaled["sosumi" .10] # 1/10th  volume
end

got it, thanks so much for the quick response!
