in Live 6 I took a dozen of those waveforms, dropped them all by -15dB and recorded them into a clip. I saved the file and re-opened it in L7 and did the same. then I inverted the L6 clip and recorded the output. it's very small, you can hear the original in it. with this the dithering process is out of the equation. all I can say is that there's a difference, better or worse by how much, dunno.
below is the file I used, it's a Live 7 file and can't be opened in Live 6.

You are doing something for which 32-bit summing is adequate.
The difference you are seeing is likely an indication that beyond simply changing precision, they took apart their summing/dither algorithms and overhauled them.
I'd also check to see if record via resample makes a difference wrt render.
