No 64 Bit VST Support

Post by Max »

Hi guys,
is it correct that Show Buddy Active doesn't support 64 Bit VST? How am supposed to be able to use the software with any up to date DAW. Almost every DAW only supports 64 Bit VSTs.

Hopeing you can tell me different.

Show Buddy Active has always included 64-bit VST support (on macOS and Windows) and 64-bit AudioUnit support (on macOS).
Can I ask why you think it does not?

When you run the Windows installer, it asks you to select the folder where the VST plug-ins should be saved. Did you perhaps skip over this step?

Hey Dave,
i think the installer only asked for the 32 Bit PlugIn folder.

So i tried it on another windows PC and it worked. It asked for the folder and installed 32 and 64 Bit. Only difference is, that it's a Windows 10 PC, the other one was a Windows 11 installation. Could this be the problem?
