We've tested SampleTank in Sonar 64 bit and haven't had any issues. Please contact our support for 1 on 1 help. Also Ampeg SVX is now a part of the AmpliTube Custom Shop, which is 64 bit and FREE.

Been there, done that, bought the T shirt.  Problems keep coming up.  I'm just not going to run any more 32bit plugs.  It's really a shame and unfair to the owners of the libraries how IK has orphaned this app.

How many "years" has  "SampleTank 3"  been in the works? Bring it on!!! I hope it has a ledgable gui. If not, can you make it smaller so nobody can read it?

This issue is a dead horse...

Anybody who really even gives 2 hoots any more shouldn't...

IK has no intention of doing anything until all iOS things are taken
care of...AND...if ANYTHING iOS has a problem, rest assured IT will
get addressed FIRST...

Those $2 apps that are flash in the pan are awesome!  Everyone needs
to plug their KEE BOARD and GEEE TAR into a phone....

I'm SURE the iPhone and iPad will easily do a 64 track piece with no hassle whatsoever...
AND will handle 10,000 plugins without any crashes...

It will even make you a turkey sandwich and wash the dishes and do
the laundry for you...

I feel your pain Obi. It's always the messenger that gets it. Merry Christmas.

@ obi - Certainly no ill will towards you.  You've been very helpful here and I assume these things are not up to you.  We're just beyond frustrated.

I run Sonar X2 64bit.  I have not had trouble running SampleTank; however, I rarely use it.  My reason is not crashes, but eyesight.  The GUI is too small to see.  When I need to use it, I invoke the Windows Magnifier; but I this inconvenience is just a deterant and I usually turn to some other synth or sampler.   


I think that pretty much sums up why I don't use it much.
 
I don't think IK has totally abandoned Windows, Amplitube has had recent udates and additions and T-Racks are all up to date. But sampletank is so far behind Kontakt now they are really going to have to pull off something major for ST3 to be a success.

I share your disdain for iOS apps, and your impatience for ST3. But let's not lose our objectivity...

1. I really doubt the iOS product line has had much impact on ST3 development. They are probably separate teams.

2. It's unfair to criticize a product that was released a decade before 64-bit operating systems became the norm for possible 64-bit compatibilty issues

3. It's bitbridge that's crashing, not SampleTank

4. Most projects in which ST is the main sample library can be run in 32-bit SONAR with no problems.

None of which is to suggest your frustration is unjustified. I'm just trying to keep it in perspective.
