@Sundance;

Hi Sundance smile

I have used a 32bit DAW on a 64bit windows since 2010.

Personally I would advice staying at 32bit if you use the DAW to make your own songs one by one.

Many plugins, as you say, have both 32 and 64 bit options, but for plugins that only has one option it's usually the 32 bit they have and not the 64. You'd rarely find a plugin that only comes in a 64bit version (you say you have some that are only 64bit though, but I think it's only a small number of plugins that are only released as 64bit. Which plugins is it you only have as 64bit versions?)

So in a 32bit DAW you're more likely to run the plugins natively rather than in bridge-mode. That might give you a slight edge in terms of compatibility/stability.

The only reason to go for 64bit is if your projects need more RAM than 32 bit can handle (I have never myself hit that wall yet)
