64 bit compatible sound card?

Is anyone successfully using Sonar with 64 bit compatibility? I just purchased a new Athlon 4000 64 AMD and Windows Pro 64 hoping to take advantage of this cutting edge technology. Looks like I'm a little ahead of the cut. I can't find a sound card that's compatible. I tried the beta driver with my M-Audio 2496 but it didn't work. I'd love to know who's recording with 64 bit and how you got it to work. I want to do multimedia, music videos in the 64 bit realm. Do I have to wait 2 years to use it? Anyone doing this, sound and video editing in 64 bit? What drivers work? Thanks, Puttynuttymusic

    I am using M-audio Delta 1010. I have had x64 for a year now and it never worked. I suspect the motherboard (Asus a8n-e), and I am going to change it with MSI SLI-FI next week. I have x86 running at the same PC. It is a lot better but I still experience pops and clicks and other unpleasant sound effects. If it is not the Mobo I will go on to the Delta driver (which is only Beta). I will actually try to use SoundBlaster Live 5.1 with x64 drivers. Apart from its huge latency it is actually a good sounding card.

    I did a lot of tweaking/setting up on both x64 and x86: PCI-Latency, Sonar ini files and XP and it helps a lot.

    I am very interested in what Mobo and Graphics card (PCI/PCI-Express) you are using...
