How to increase the volume of MIDI playback by foo_midi

Not sure which board to throw this in, might as well threw it in general.
During MIDI playback by foo_midi, it is noticeable that the volume of MIDI playback is slightly lower than regular MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, FLAC playback. So just curious it there a way to increase the volume of foo_MIDI?

Here's two screenshot of playback of AAC and MIDI with spectrum,

Choose a different driver. Use a louder soundfont. Anything. Adding a volume control would only complicate matters, as every single MIDI synthesizer and sound bank has different volume levels, and thus everything needs manual tweaking. Never mind that each individual MIDI file may have completely different volume levels from any other.

Well I'm using Secret Sauce and your advice is quite true for the others options such as BASSMIDI as other soundfonts are quite loud enough.

For Secret Sauce, you could try foo_dsp_amp.
