The Amiga has 4 volume controls; one per voice.  To read the current amplitude of a voice you can use the vumeter function.  You cannot use Mvolume as a variable though because it is a command.  It merely sets the music volume.

   V0=Vumeter(0)
   V1=Vumeter(1)
   V2=Vumeter(2)
   V3=Vumeter(3)

Vumeter only gets the volume from a .med .mod .abk music file but no for the sound samples played by the sam play command  :(

if we do that
sam loop on
sam play 1
Do
V0=Vumeter(0)
locate 10,10:print V0
loop

the valor of V0 always get "0" :(

so any idea how to get the volume valor on a single sound sample??

Amcaf extension has some extra sound commands, maybe look through the online manual for that?
