Post mpxplay with awe 64 very little sound output

I just installed dos and mpxplay, using my awe 64 gold.. it setup easy and works great, but in mpxplay (even with the vol high) there's little output compared to windows..
when I turn up the vol in mpxplay it distorts easily, how do I get full output???
I'm really new to mpxplay, but am going with it because of the sub 20sec boot time..
any help and tips on how to get the most out of it would be greatly appreciated.

im guessing like the other older Creative Labs sound cards they came with a set of DOS utilities. One of the utils will be to set the mixer level.

Im guessing that when you boot up your system the mixer on the sound card is set only part the way up. You need to run a mixer util to set the volume to what you want.

I remember with my old SB16 I used to run a supplied mixer util to get the sound up.

Personally im over the DOS/MPXPLAY method, windows and winamp is much better. A little bit longer to boot (im in the sub 25second mark with my cut down OS), and winamp is hands down the best sounding player, period.

I'm also using an AWE 64 sound card under DOS with MpxPlay. There is a utility called "mixerset" that can be used to set the levels. If it wasn't included in the AWE64 DOS drivers you can download the SB16 drivers and use the mixerset utility from that. I didnt bother using the AWE64 drivers and just installed the SB16 ones.
