Loss of resolution depends on how far down the control is set. There's been a lot of discussion about this on this forum over the years, but to (potentially over) simplify, a digital volume control basically shifts bits downward and the bottommost bits are discarded. If those bottommost bits are all zeros, then you didn't lose any resolution. With 16 bit samples, being handled as 24 bit, there are always some discardable bits, so no worries, at least not in the ranges that RG will get you to with player volume set to 100%. If that's over simplified, search for those forum conversations, there were pages of it. As I remember (and IMO, of course), the best explanation came from Sean Adams (user seanadams), which I can't find right now (anyone got a link?)
