Maybe the noise floor is going up with the amplitude of the signal?

Is that possible?  When i try to increase the volume (signal constant multiplier)
the output decreases in dynamic range. I don't understand how that happens.
Can you suggest how to increase the volume in the output of Csound.

I try to use Csound for background music as a prerecorded drone generator
and I'd like to make sound louder. Right now it's too quiet and we need to 
set high gain values on mixing console to amplify the signal. 

When I multiply the signal it reduces in dynamic range. It looks like there is something that
compresses the signal. Is it csound or my soundcard? I'm using laptop.
