+The signal path is: oscillator → <code>gain &#42; velocity</code> → filters → distortion → modulation → phaser/flanger → <code>envelope &#42; postgain</code> → chorus → <code>pan</code>.

+<CommandEntry name="gain" type="number" min={0} default={1}>
+
+Pre-filter gain multiplier. Applied before filters and distortion, combined with <code>velocity</code> as <code>gain &#42; velocity</code>.
