Just that I use 64 bit in logic, but i use studio one in 32 bit mode.....


and what would be the correct install order?

I have all rp products, would the procedure you will describe be the same for all?

cheers...

Yes - at least I know you can with Blue and Predator. The plugins install with different file names (such as Blue.component and Blue_64.component). I toggle between using 32 and 64 bit in both Logic and Studio One and have not had any trouble.
I'm fairly sure it doesn't matter which order you install, but I think I did the 32-bit plugins first.

You shouldn't have a problem with this, as mentioned the 32 / 64 AU versions have different names, and the 64 bit VST is a universal 32 / 64 bit version.

So I also, would suggest installing the 32 bit versions first, and then the 64 bit versions. The 32 AU version will not be overwritten by the 64 bit version, and the 64 bit VST will the universal one which works in 32 & 64 bit system.

Any problems, let us know.

One last question...

i presume i can untick the "content" or "support files" the second time after i have already installed them with the 32 bit version, when i go to install the 64??

Yes, you can untick those if you want, but if you don't it'll just install the same files again, it's up to you either way should work for you.

There seems to be a problem with RP-Distort AU in this respect.

Installing the 64 bit version will overwrite the 32 bit version (and vice-versa) even though they have different names.

(not experiencing this issue with RP-Delay, Punch and SBB).

i have separate folders for VST and VST64.. i think it is easy since most installers let you choose for each..

Hi Jon,

Thanks for the reply.

Do you have any rough ETA for the next version?

Cheers,

Alan

Hi there

It's impossible to say, we are all busy with Blade at the moment.

If you want to install both, at the moment I would suggest that you install the 32 bit component, move it temporarily somewhere else, and then install the 64 bit version and then move the 32 bit version back.

Cheers

No worries Jon... your workaround sounds like a good one.

Good luck with Blade!
