Is there a way to increase the volume of accents? I'm arranging for marching drumline, and can barely hear the difference between an accented note and non-accented. I'd ideally like to do this on a global or instrument level, so I don't have to adjust it for every score.

Thanks!

Edit the accent articulation in the Play-->Dictionary.

Also, make sure Play-->Interpretation is set to meccanico. This can have a great effect on the accuracy of dynamic and articulation playback. The same goes for Play-->Live Playback. Turn it off.
