Prolly misunderstood - I'm just trying to achieve a lower volume - no matter what the reason is - and at that point, the pick plastic sound comes into play. What I suspect is that I need to control the volume by not loosening my grip on the pick, but instead still grabbing the pick firmly and lowering volume by just distancing the pick from the strings and playing with just the tip of the pick.
