adjust/align the volume inside a mscx file in a text editor
It comes from my Openscore project (and it came from my request long time ago: https://musescore.org/en/user/57401/blog/2017/06/20/openscore-first-edi… (see point 2) but maybe it's interesting in general to get a better result.
The aim is to use exactly the same value of volume for the same instrument when a major work is divided in several parts/movements.
I figured out, when I adjust the volume inside the mixer, in the mscx file appears an entry like: "controller ctrl="7" value="119"" and I suppose there I've to align the value (and not in the entry "program value")
So what is the highest value there (equal to 100%)
At time it's possible to adjust the volume approximately via knobs inside the mixer (see: https://musescore.org/en/node/188266), but not exactly.
Maybe name me pedantic (but I hope not too much ;)

highest value is 127
127=100% (according to midi specificaton)
maximum 7bit value is; Binary: 1111111(B) = Hexadecimal: 7F(H) = Decimal: 127

Add 1 for comfortable use. 127 + 1 = 128
after making the calculation, subtract 1 from the result.
For 1/2: 128/2 = 64 and 64-1 = 63
For 1/4: 128/4 = 32 and 32-1 = 31
For 1/3: 128/3 = 42.666 .. (round to 43) and 43-1 = 42
etc.
