So what kind of problems manifest with the X3c 64-bit engine currently?
Just wondering because I've been using it and I don't believe I've had any issues attributable to it (all my issues are with EastWest Play) but I'd like to know what to be on the lookout for.
Thanks.

But seriously, I remember suggesting it to someone for another issue, but can't remember what it was, or if it worked. Sorry.

For me, I get a humming sound from my audio device when 64 bit is enabled. It is quiet (as in X3b) when it is disabled.

The Quadcurve EQ's spectrum analyzer also goes on the wonk occasionally on a mono track with 64-bit precision enabled.

Do you have the Console Emulator on any mono interleaved tracks?

Yeah, whatever good music was ever recorded on one of those rubbish analogue desks?

It is funny how we always want what we can't have. Back in the day, what made the great analogue consoles great was that they were as low distortion/noise/colouration as possible. The lengths that they went to to give pure sound was pretty incredible. The objective as to be as neutral as possible. Well now we have digital, which when done properly is completely neutral and transparent... and we pine for the sounds of old and emulate it in our DAW :).
Same deal with e-pianos. The original goal was to try and give you a piano that wasn't some massive grand piano, something you could actually carry with you. However they didn't really do a very good job of sounding like a piano. They kinda did, but they missed the mark pretty far. So now we have top notch digital sampling, wonderful grands on any keyboard... and we then sample and/or emulate those e-pianos, because we want that sound too :D.

And the first song I did with Sonar I spent weeks tracking down samples for a toy piano because I liked it better for that song.
