Change volume of playsound after it has been started

Hi
So I'm currently working on a datapack that plays different soundtracks for different biomes. However what I have problem with is transitions between biomes when soundtracks are changed. Currently I need to crop the old music and replace it with another soundtrack which is rather choppy.

A nice feature would be to be able to target a specific sound and change it's volume after it has been started by the playsound command. This would allow me to create a fade out, by lowering the volume all the way down to 0 over some time when a player changes biome instead of just cropping the sound which in my opinion doesn't feel that great.

Thanks

    I think this could be an interesting synthax :

    /playsound <sound> <x> <y> <z> <selector> <volume> <pitch> <min. volume> <fade in = time in ticks> <fade out = time in ticks>
