Hi Chris,

Thanks for another important, helpful post.
I've drafted something related to my own project which I'd like you to consider if it's worth starting a new topic on OSD.
Can I send it to you by private message ?

ATB, jtl.

digital performer v10.13 is the last 32bit version for windows
(not to be confused with pro tools v10.3.8 last 32bit version that supports RTAS)

for studio one, i think its Studio One v3 is the last version that supported 32bit windows
