I think our default skin should have such a knob.

Do you have interest to look into this yourself?

I think you need to edit this file:
https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/blob/12da5a54eedba3376ea2186dcb4cf01d4e1a6b8a/res/skins/Deere/sampler_controls_row.xml

and add something like

<Template src="skin:mixer_column_gain_levels.xml"/>

or the content of mixer_column_gain_levels.xml

I've added a gain knob to the top row, just a hack. This would be my preferred solution.

I would not like the gain knob cluttering the simple sampler view, but it could be added to the expanded view. As a workaround, you could also apply gain to your samples in Audacity or a DAW so you don't need to keep adjusting the gain knob in Mixxx.

@ Uwe
Thanks for the xml!
Don't know much about coding, so where does I have to place this piece to make it work? Just for personal use I don't matter much for cluttering to make it work.
@ Be
I understand your style concerns. Using a DAW isn't exactly flexible.

In the expanded view is my preferred option.
