64 bit plugin vrs. 32 bit plugin thru Bitbridge

Just wondering. Is there any difference in sound quality between a 64 bit plugin in 64 bit audio program and a 32 bit plugin thru BitBridge or JBridge in the same 64 bit audio program? Is there any difference at all? And if there is, What is it.

    Yes, EZdrummer Sounds amazing in 64 bit and doesn't sound at all in 32!  lol

    I know this isn't what you meant but I thought I would share that example with you.

    As far as 32 and 64 sound difference I am sure it is hard to notice a difference to the ear.

    If there is, I can't hear any.  I don't believe there really is as we are talking about binary bytes in an application that have been expanded not the actual audio you are recording (like going from 16-bit to 24-bit WAV files for example).

    Don't confuse 64Bit code (dll files) with 64Bit audio resolution.
     
    You can run a 64Bit host DAW software using 32Bit Float audio summing.

    32Bit/64Bit code and 32Bit/64Bit audio resolution are two totally different things.
