Why Is it so hard to make drivers 64bit?
It's a shame that the product that was the very definition of the future of synthesis is now the only thing keeping us from moving forward and going 64bit.. and the time is at hand.. I've tried the win7 RC's and this is it. The new XP, only faster and much more stable. And this is still a prerelease..
I hope Access will eventually see this is an essential upgrade... especially for people working with audio; today's VST samplers and romplers use a lot of ram...

I faced a similar dilemna. After a lot of research, I regretfully built a 32bit DAW.

I've looked into this fairly extensively and didn't find a solution. I am a Network Administrator for my day job and I know where to look to find answers to stuff like this. I couldn't find anything. I've basically concluded that it can't be done (if anyone does find a workaround, let me know!!).

Access need to make VC compatible with 64 bit OS's. There's an increasingly loud rallying call for them to do this, but eh.. you can't rush genius :>

This is a very good question, and I'm not actually sure how difficult it is.

I know that making an application 64bit compatible is easier than making it actually use the extra power possible in a 64bit environment, but not much more than that.

I suspect it's a major project because if it was quick and easy Access would have done it by now.
