And a friendly reminder that VC-64 is a 32 bit plug, just in case you are trying to go all 64 bit like me.

For this plug John I am happy to keep partially 32 bit - it really is one of the best in CW for me!

surprised it has been taken out of X3 - it was a Kjaerhus effect, right?  The sale to Gibson shouldn't affect that.  Kjaerhus had some issues and maybe stopped producing software, as I remember, so perhaps the licensing couldn't be perpetuated?
 
Any ideas about why it was lost? 
 
I never really got into the VC-64 anyway, something about its interface made it seem unwieldy to me, but I think I did use it a few times in some old music, which means I have another reason along with V-Vocal to have to keep previous Sonar version installations around.

Well it wont ever get an upgrade for one. It may be for some other reason though. One that is contractual perhaps.

I like the VC-64 a whole lot. I assume Cakewalk has a reason not to include it, but when I noticed it was missing, I pulled out the X2 install disks...
 
So why do I like it? De-esser before amp sims, amazing pumping drum effects by using the out of phase option on one compressor channel, putting two compressors with really small ratios in series...it's a great little plug-in.

Yes it is. It took me a little while to get use to the interface, but once I got the hang of it I wanted more and more!!
 
Yes it is 32bit only. And from everything that I have read on this forum, the guy that developed it just dropped out of sight. No word, nothing. Just closed the doors on his business. Never learned why. But I heard he had some really good free fx's at one time. I never could get a copy of them to try. But if they were like the Vintage 64 (and I heard they were just as good), I just never understood why he just let it all go.
 
A lot of people speculated, but no one ever came up with an official word of what happened that I know of.
 
Bummer.

VC64 was first included in Sonar 6 Producer Edition.
