Setting volume for group of segments?

I have about 13 segments in my current project.

The audio is on a separate track (track 2 audio).

I select the audio segment, and I can easily set the volume level to 65 (from the default 50) for one segment.

But of my 13 segments, about 10 of them should be at 65. (A few need to be different..)

I can easily go into the Audio Mixing Room, and select each segment, then edit the box so the volume for the segment is set to 65. Select next segment, repeat.

This happens regularly in my projects, where I want a set of segments at the same volume, but NOT the default.

If I select more than one segment, the Audio Mixing Room won't just adjust all of the selected segments to 65.

Hopefully I'm just doing it wrong. It's doable manually, but takes an extra 5 minutes when I really just want to select 10 segments and set them all to 65. It's a pain if I figure out later those segments should really be at 75 or 55.

Any suggestions? PD 12 - 12.0.2930.0

When you are in the Audio Mixing Room, look below the vertical slider, there is a Horizontal slider, that slider controls the audio level for the entire track.

If you adjust that slider, that should increase your volume level for the whole track.

You may be able to the select just the individual Clips and adjust those clips with the vertial Slider.

On PD10 the only way to operate the volume in several segments, or better all segments of the same band, see the image.

However, be aware that the audio gain slider also acts as a volume limiter. It acts on the whole track and whatever level is set is the maximum volume for any individual clip. So if it is set low, because of a majority of loud clips, softer clips cannot be individually set higher whilst on the same track.
