So, from what I understand from Steinberg’s announcement ( you can read it here) the forthcoming Cubase 9 and Nuendo 8 will be 64-bit only. Windows 10 Home 64 bit supports up to 128GB which is plenty. Of course that sort of size of memory in a computer doesn’t exist and operating systems impose their own limits. 64-bit software can address 18 quintillion bits of data (2 to the power of 64) or 16 exabytes (EB) which is around 16.8 million TB’s. With the size of virtual instruments these days and the demands of high quality plug-ins, 4GB is not very much. A 32-bit piece of software, whether that’s running on a 32- or 64-bit OS, can only use up to 4GB (2 to the power of 32) of memory. The biggest and most useful advantage of 64-bit is the ability to use more memory. Although Steinberg have announced that the troubled VST Bridge (it wraps 32-bit plug-ins to use in 64-bit Cubase) will be no more, there are third party wrappers such as jBridge which can still work and always did a better job anyway. It’s a disaster for those special people who desperately need to run a pre-millennium 32-bit plug-in without which their music and life is pointless. And it’s a relief for those of us whose system crashes when VST Bridge tries to wrap up a dodgy old plug-in. It’s a relief for those of us who accidentally launch the Cubase 32-bit version and wonder where all our plug-ins went. That’s a relief for those of us tired of all the confusing plug-in folders we have cluttering up the place.
