Auto-Tune, 32-bit, and 64-bit Sonar

I'm having a long and so far unsuccessful struggle trying to use both Antares Auto-Tune 7 (aka Auto-Tune + Time) and Sonar X1 64-bit. Apparently it's an issue known to both Sonar and Antares that you can only run Antares Auto-Tune + Time with the 32-bit version of Sonar X1.

So far, my solution has been to use the 32-bit version of Sonar even though I have a 64-bit OS. What I'm wondering is this: can anyone tell me what I'm missing by not being able to use the 64-bit version? Is it worth switching to another pitch-and-time-correcting program, like Melodyne, so that I can use the 64-bit version? Is it more stable? Faster? More features?

Thanks a bunch,

  

Uhhh, scratch that and go to the FAQ page and look for: SONAR x64: Everything You Need to Know

Antares is still 32bit, HOWEVER, prior to X1D, Auto-tune Evo works fairly well IF you are using jbridge. Worth the $20 in my opinion. Anatare Auto tune 7 is not ready for primtime, no updates or customer support they are worthless and unhelpful. I know because I upgraded over a year ago to AT7 assuming 64bit was a go and stability was a given. NO and NO. That being said, with Evo and jBridge and any sonar up through X1c will process Evo with wonderful results. With the exception of the graphical user interface glitching out when resizing and vanishing graphics. occasionally having to close the Evo window and re-open. Melodyne is 64 bit but as of X1D won't fast bounce, or bounce to clip. Great for polyphonic material though!

I use 32bit Avox Evo components in 64bit SONAR with no problems.

Looking forward to 64bit none the less.

Antares has been saying they were working on 64 bit for over a year now. 

As have been IK. To their credit some have become 64bit.

Avox Evo here with jBridge. No probs.

I don't use Cakewalk's Bitbridge at all.
Although with Presonus studio One v2 being so closely tied to Melodyne I now use that for any pitch and timing correction or iZotope's Nectar
