There are several things you can do to increase the volume of a sample.
Experiment with one or more of the following until you get the sound you want.

<li>In that same window, press the Edit... button to edit the waveform.
Then, press the Louder button until it warns you that doing so would introduce distortion.
<li>On the Composer page for the Rhythm track, set the volume control all the way to the right.
<li>On the record page, set the volume for the rhythm track all the way to the right.
<li>On the Mixer page, set the volume for Audio all the way to the right.
