Can you switch between formats (admission music/DCP sound) per playlist, or do you do that manually when starting a show? If there are cues to switch format, volume cues can be built using the same method, or, maybe they are already there, but haven't been recognized as what they are. Look for something like 'fader' 'volume' '5.5' '6.0' or similar indications.

If you have a legacy sound processor that only changes level via the panel knob (CP55/65 and many others) and a digital server without the capability to vary audio output level (this is not universal) you are likely SOL.
Not true at all! Here 's a document from the Warehouse that shows how to use a trim pot connected to the Remote Fader terminals to pre-set the fader level for trailer. Automation switches the Remote Fader on and off per your needs. Other legacy processors can handle automatic level changes in a similar manner.

Using GPOs from the server (or JNIOR) would even allow to set 'a few' different levels through resistors.
