Topic: Reducing vol in P'tq = increase in performance?

My old lappie has a digital volume control which has about twelve settings.
If the volume on Pianoteq is set too high, then only about 4 of those settings get used.  The others are too loud through headphones and also through speakers on the piano.
It's been like that for many moons; today I decided to do something about it.
And it seems that reducing Pianoteq volume (I have volume and a lot of other parameters fixed for all instruments) enables the shortfall to be more easily handled by the computer volume, which has to go up accordingly.

I now seem to get no cut outs; I wasn't expecting that.  Does that make sense to anybody here?  It's looking like Pteq 6 is going to be sound on my set up after all . . . .

I'm playing all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order

could it be that when reducing volumen Pianoteq uses less bits?

well, you just asked my question in one line.  Whatever the answer is, I just bought  it and it goes fine.
