a 64bit VI is currently passing testing cycles ... stay tuned
thanks christian. Forgive me for being slow but I would still need Logic 9 (64 bit) if I want to exceed the 2-3 GB RAM limit? Right? Or would this be possible in Logic 8 (32 bit) as well with 64bit VI?
btw, I'm on OS X 10.6.2
Actually this is a very good question. Historically VI has worked the same as VE on OSX, using memory outside of the host. If this is still the case with the 64bit version of VI, it seems it would be possible to use the same connector method, enabling you to use a 32bit host, but with this 64bit plug. However, as many Logic users already complain about having an extra click with the current method (poor darlings ), it may well be that it should be hosted the same way as most normal plugs, requiring the 64bit version of the sequencer.

I just received this reply from VSL support:
"We are currently finalizing our tests for the next update of Vienna Instruments, which is going to be 64-bit.
To answer your question: yes, it is going to be possible to instantiate Vienna Instruments 64-bit in a 32-bit host sequencer and still have access to all the RAM installed on your computer!"
Good news! [:)]
