Correct. Unless there is an update to it somewhere, the version I installed from the media was 32bit only. I admit I have not searched out if a 64bit version of Eco DV exists.

Trust me... there is no 64 bit version of Eco DV


If you want 64 bit you need BFD Eco 1.5 or BFD2

BFD2 and BFD Eco are both 64 bit .  Eco DV is not.

Sweet.  So I can get Eco 1.5 for $49 or BFD for $99.  Hmmmm......

Indeed you can. You should really check out both thoroughly before you decide and check out minimum requirements (especially for BFD2)
and then double them. If you want to get serious about drums and creating your own sounds then BFD2 is the way to go and at $99
it's a no brainer as they say.
Having said that Eco is (IMHO) the best in that category and at that price and is much less of a learning curve.
I have posted loads of stuff about both and put up a comparison in another thread I'll dig out for you if you like.

Thanks, Steve.  I would like a link to your comparisons.  I've looked all over the web and I don't see anyone saying that the DV version is up-gradable t BFD2 for $99.  I' sent emails to FXpansion and Sweetwater but where did you see that?

Hi Dean finally found my post of Eco v BFD2 comparisons.
It near the bottom of page 2  Here  


It's a rough comparison and is part fact part opinion.


As for the upgrade from Eco Dv it is listed at the top of the page on the add at skitskat music  here

I just heard back from FXpansion.  You can upgrade from Eco DV to Eco 1.5 for $40 or to BFD for the going price.

NOW ya tell me...I JUST plucked down the $45 to AudioDeluxe
for ECO because the DV version SUCKS....

It, being only 32 bit, makes a WHOLE lot of static noise when playing the grooves...


On the BRIGHT SIDE...I got the Rock Legends Kit FREE...

And I bet you don't get that kit with the Upgrade...

So, if that's the case...I'm not disappointed...Just means I got 
the RL Kit for $5 instead of $30...

 Maybe procrastination in this case will help me. My copy of Gen z is still in the box in my studio after three days. Hopefully by the time I load it all of the server problems will be over ;)

How does it being only 32 bit cause a whole lot of static noise ?
I've never heard of such a thing and having owned both Eco and BFD2 32bit versions have never had it happen to me. Are you saying all 32bit plug ins cause a whole load of static noise. Something else is going on that has nothing to do with 32bit architecture.

Well Steve here's what I can tell you...


BOTH the Stand Alone and the Plug In...when you play multiple cymbals...gets REALLY bad...the signal breaks up like Digital Peaking..


EVEN THOUGH ALL THE LEVELS ARE DOWN ....

I'm CERTAINLY not blaming the 32 bit architecture...I have plenty of 32 bit plugs and stand alone Hosts that work just fine...


May have something to do with Eco DV and the Quad Capture Asio driver...I really don't know...


All I know is it's terrible ( FOR ME )


Guess I should have qualified that statement...my bad

And REALLY ...if DV had worked fine I wouldn't have plucked down the $45 for ECO...

Getting the 64 bit host AND the RL Quick Kit is what pushed me to buy it..
