Re: Why PT10 is not 64 bit... let's get this over with ;)
"When the next version of Pro Tools comes out and drops RTAS/TDM support, we'll see 64 bit processing across the board."
I'll wait to upgrade until that happens then.
"Just make an app that runs in 64 bit with the new plugin format, and if you need to run RTAS or TDM plugins you have to run the app in 32 bit mode."
That's what Logic has been doing for a couple years now - you can choose between opening it in 32-bit or 64-bit mode. The 32-bit plugs still run in 64-mode, with a "bridge". An extra step, clicking on a window to open 32-bit plugs is somewhat annoying, but still better than no 64-bit option imho.
"Basically, with 32 bit float processing, you can never clip internally. This gives you infinitely more breathing space in the mix."
Cubase had this 10 years ago (yes, 10 - a decade).
