(regarding 64-bit OSX udpate schedules...)

B2 will be first for 64-bit. The reason for this is that B2 had the most recent system code updates. Every time we make a new product we enhance our systems and GUI code with little extra nice things. These things are generally desirable for all products. (for an example, say we make an enhancement to our preset browser). So this systems and GUI code is shared internal "SDK" code that we reuse and share between plug-ins. Each time this is enhanced our shared library gets enhanced. The next time the next product gets updated (with real changes and enhancements to the actual DSP processing, which is the real functional part of the products) these library changes that were made previously (while working on another product) gets applied to the current product update. Thus the process is cyclical in nature.

So B2 had the most up-to-date systems code and this is what we used as the code base for the 64-bit port. We have it running now internally using this new code base finally!! But there are still bugs to work out. We are getting very close.

Aether will be second. Breeze third.

Aether is in no way being abandoned. It is used daily on the biggest projects in our industry. We will do an Aether 2.0 with significant enhancements some time in the future. First completion of the 64-bit port. Then we release an unrelated product that was functionally done over a year ago.

We will be very happy to be done with the 64-bit OSX systems stuff soon so that we can continue to focus our efforts on product innovation and DSP research.

Very exciting things are coming...

...also we will likely make the B2 update (which includes 64-bit OSX support) available as a public beta to all customers who would like to try it while we are still testing ourselves. It may come as early as the first week of Decemeber or so. We'll see.

Aether and Breeze will not take as long as long as it took us for B2 b/c most of the time spent on this stuff was to redo all of our GUI library code and once this has been done, which it has, we only have to "connect" the exact plug-in specifics to this shared code. In fact, Breeze should go very quickly indeed.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop! I'm excited about the 64-bit updates :)

Hiya, Andrew! Any updates for us on Aether and Breeze 64 bit Mac? I'm dying to use these again in Ableton. I need to open Live 8 sessions in Live 9 that use Aether and Breeze. I needed to go 64 bit for my use of large sample libraries that were giving me Out of Memory errors in Live 8. Are we near a 64 bit celebration? Fingers are cramping from being crossed :-)

It is already there (public beta) : http://www.gearslutz.com/board/9118303-post873.html

Breeze is already 64 bit too. Just download it: http://www.gearslutz.com/board/8961798-post459.html
