Is the newest version available as a 64 bit application?

It appears to be. It installs in "Program Files" on my 64bit Win7 machine and loads 64bit VST2/3 and DirectX plug-ins. There are references in the help to "Music Creator x64 (64-bit)" for example see the bottom of http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Music%20Creator%207&language=3&help=NewFeatures.18.html. I must admit the comparison page http://www.cakewalk.com/D...p;help=Comparison.html item "Windows x64 Support" which says "Runs as 32-bit" is confusing. I wish some one from CW would explain this.

that is confusing. 
 
however, I didn't think it could run 64bit plugins unless the program itself was 64bit, plus, as scook said, it installs in the 64bit windows directory.  I'm thinking it must be 64bit and who ever created the comparison chart received incorrect information.

I got my daughter the last version MC6 Touch and I am pretty sure that was 32. I remember installing Dim Pro for her and then realizing I had to install the 32 bit  not 64 bit version.
 
I just would think that Cake would be pushing that MC7 was 64 bit now, but nothing seems to clearly show that, but I also did notice since my initial post that it wasn't installing in Programs Files (x86) this time. 

MC6T is definitely 32bit only. The C3 installs an OS specific version of MC7, 32bit on 32bit OS and 64bit on 64bit OS, just like SONAR. On my Win7 64bit PC, MC7 loads the few 32bit plug-ins I have in BitBridge. Most every plug-in I have is 64bit and they load fine in MC7, including DirectX plug-ins which are host specific. IOW, only a 64bit host will run 64bit DirectX plug-ins.

Hi Robert,
 
This is a common question we get sometimes when seeing so many things described in bits, You have an interface that records at one, you have apps built a certain way, and you have the audio engine of an app, and what types of files it will create. That's a lot of bits...
 
Music Creator 7 is now both 64 and 32bit based on your operating system. The 32bit reference you saw is related to the internal mixing engine of MC7. This is called 32bit floating point, meaning that we process audio internally higher than it was recorder for superior audio quality when mixing down files. Most audio interfaces record at 24bit so usually the 32bit mixing engine is more than sufficient to handle many many track for mixing your project down.
 
In SONAR we do allow for users to use a 64bit floating point mix engine for even better summing of audio signals. This is ideal for when you are summing many many many tracks together for scoring and other large format pop productions that may have as many as 100 tracks.
 
Bits are basically a type of units to describe different digital and computer things and are usually mutually exclusive even though they are measured the same way.
 
Hope that explains your question, 

Thank you Lance, very good explanation.
