Glad I can still use : SpectralDelay, Vokator
Still useful : DNR WaveDesigner

One of the very few 32-bit plugins i still use, besides that almost only 64-bit here.

I'm all 32-bit now. However, if I build new rig, I'll move to 64-bit.

Of course. But I'm installing 64 bit whenever possible.

Yup. Some free gems that only come as x86 (Variety of Sound, J-Scope etc).

Yes, since a a lot of effects and some instruments I use simply don't have 64bit versions.

The only thing i would run a 32-bit DAW for is Terratec Komplexer. Awesome synth. But then, Largo is remotely the same ballpark (doesn't sound the same, but similar), and it is 64-bit. In general, 99.9 % of the stuff released nowadays comes as 64-bit. And the 0.01 which don't are built with some obsolete framework like SynthEdit, or Flowstone. Obsolete until they let you build 64-bit VST2's, like any other developer releases these days.

My OS is 64-bit (Windows 7), but DAW and plugs are all 32 bit.

Can load 4 hour WAV files in Reaper-32 without issues, so I see no reason to go 64.

I answered "Yes" because there are a couple of old gems that I still use from time to time, but for any practical statistical measurement :D I think I should answer "No", as my projects are usually always completely 64 bit. So... I would hazard a guess that's the case for quite a number of the "Yes" votes, actually.

Thinking it through, the only 32 bit plugins that I've used in the last four years or so, are a couple of Variety of Sound ones and this: http://www.artificialaudio.com/productmenu/2 (which was kind of left hanging, the news on the site said "QUARTZ and OBELISK will be updated soon including 64-bit support"... in 2012).

Wouldn't buy a new plugin if it was 32 bit only, unless it was somehow unbelievably special. In which case there would most probably be a 64 bit version of it too, anyway, heh.

Absolutely. :)

REAPER does a nice job of running 32-bit plugins on a 64 bit platform.

32 bit Forever!

Absolutely no desire to move on to the 64-bit paradigm. All overhyped tech BS imo.! . . :razz: :clown:
