Default volume for instruments in pattern editor

It'd be nice to be able to set a default volume for notes input in the pattern editor. At the moment, if I'm working at very low volumes, and forget to put a vxx command in, I can get a nasty shock, and I don't think it's good for my ears.

It'd be even nicer if this could have some sort of 'randomness' level, as well, so we could say, for example, 'Default volume 42+/-4', with the values distributed according to, say, a Normal distribution.

about the 2nd feature, it is already there in the instrument settings: random variation.

For plugins? And with precisely definable limits?

It'd also be good to have hard values put in, because then they can be manually tweaked if necessary.

i don't know if it works for plugins, but it should. and if it doesn't, i blame... someone!

I'd really like to bump this old request...

old? not at all.

what I'd really like would be a MPT 1.17.02.53, but that's a different story.

Bumping request to include set volumes, as is done with split instruments.
