Reducing volume on a sound asset

Hello, all!

I ran a search this morning to see if anyone had asked how to reduce the sound volume on just a single asset, and all I could find were questions concerning sound volume in general.

How does one go about reducing the volume of one particular asset? In particular, I have one loco whose growl is particularly loud. For all I know, the engine's volume might be accurate, but I've added a good number of pleasant ambient sounds (such as ocean waves, cicadas, chirping birds). I'd like to be able to hear those from time to time.

I suspect an outside program that specializes in sound files might be the ticket (much like reskinning in Photoshop), but I'm clueless when it comes to sound editing.

Thanks!
 
Get something like Audacity (free) and use it to reduce the volume of the WAV file. Depending on your OS, it might also have sound editing facilities so check that out too.
