    But can it load 32Bit Plug-Ins?

    It will all depend on what plugin and if they have native 64bit support, or are able to run in XP64 but only in 32bit mode. You need to check with the manufacturer for each and every plug that you intend to run.

    Daryl...don't know if you're THAT bored, but you've seemed quite bored the past few weeks. [:D] Better get those builders out of your house and make some music........

    Gagga...as FXT is a 32-bit application it will live like it does on a 32-bit platform, that is being able to load 32-bit plugins. As far as I know Sonar is the only released 64-bit host right now and the only one being able to load 64-bit AND 32-bit plugins. I really haven't used any re-routing of midi cc's as far as I can remember, but I'll try to check it out. As an example you mean from the same midi port and channel route cc2 to VSTi 1 and cc3 to VSTi 2?

    Unfortunately my current project has been delayed for a few weeks, hence the messing around with PCs. Actually due to the failure of VSL to meet their release targets, I guess that it may have worked out for the best. The only downside is that the builders have been a bit slow as well, so even that project is delayed [:(] However, the windows went in today, so at least I have a room now......

    I think that I may try this 64bit thing over FXT [[:|]]

    FYI:

    I spent about 2.5 hours on the phone with my computer builder last night.
    What an effort! We couldn't get the BIOS on my dual Opteron to take the 3 GB attempt and had an enormously difficult time getting the system back in shape. Finally, we restored things, but I was about a toe away from having to reinstall Windows XP.

    From my experience, be careful! And make sure that you, or someone you're working with, really understands this stuff.

    Here's to a fully functional Vista set up!

    Sorry to hear about your problem and this is unfortunately too late now, but for other users trying the same thing...

    This is exactly why you always should COPY the line in boot.ini (as outlined here http://community.vsl.co.at/viewtopic.php?t=7952">http://community.vsl.co.at/viewtopic.php?t=7952). That way you get a dual boot with a /3GB and a non-/3GB system and you have a safe route back if the machine doesn't boot with the /3GB switch enabled.

    That's exactly what we tried... exactly. However, rebooting the FIRST time after copying the boot.ini line caused a crash we couldn't get past. Ultimately, I got the system to read off of the DVD drive and work its way past the problem, at least to the point where I could rewrite the line in question. Chris, of ADK Pro Audio... who's great... says that something in the BIOS setting was causing a conflict.

    Thanks!!! and any comments on the string quartet I just programmed using VI and Solo Strings would be appreciated... http://garyeskow.com/xray.html
