Volume and pitch are relative values to OpenAL.  That is, all files and 
buffers you give it are considered 1.0.  If you attach the buffer to a 
source and set the gain or pitch of the source to a different value, it 
alters the sound output appropriately when played.

Can you explain in more detail what exactly you're trying to do?
