Volume discrepancy between staves

In a choral score, when I enter the same note in both the tenore and bass staves, the tenor sounds the same as the S & A, but the bass sounds much softer. e.g the tenor might sound mf or even f, while the bass is mp or even p. Hope you helpful guys can help me fix this😊

You can adjust the volume of each staff in the Mixer, provided they're each assigned to a different channel (Score Manager).

Thanks for your advice. Each of the four staves is assigned to a different channel: 1, 2, 3, 4. The mixer shows different values - e.g. 60 for the top 3 staves and 100 for the Bass. Yet nothing changes coming out of the speaker. (Haven't tried headphones yet). Playback from other sources is not affected - just Finale.

Do you mean Playback Volume,
or the sound made when Inputting the Notes?
Or both?
I would give the soft notes higher Volume Expressions to compensate and keep going.
I'd have a Playback Score, and another for Performance Parts.
Are you using Garritan or Soft Synth, or something else?
Of course, a real Fix would be preferred!
