What are you all currently using? I'm on cubase 7.5 and reason 4 but am thinking of upgrading Reason so as to use 64-bit re-wire. Anyone gone down that route yet? or is 32-bit still working for you?

fl studio has been 64bit since 2013, so the best version thats not beta is 11.1
there is still no option in the options to set the 64bit vst folder, you can only set it in the installer when installing, or use regedit

@Guest: Are you re-wiring anything?
Cubase went 64 bit a while back now but has only enabled re-wire for it since version 7, I think.
Both host and slave have to be 64-bit in order for them to be compatible.

@Mortis:Yeah, just saw it in action recently in dj Ham's tutorials. looks interesting though I've invested in cubase a fair bit and don't feel like adding another DAW to the collection. I guess my concern is whether to upgrade reason for the samplers in 64-bit or get kontakt for 64-bit cubase.

nope, but if image line are good with anything, its midi and loop backs, like midi out channels and vsti`s on a mixer channel etc, while every other DAW you will have to use a sample instead
the demo is full functional http://www.image-line.com/downloads/flstudiodownload.html except openning saved project files, and fl studio would be lost without rewire with most people just rewiring it for a drum machine

I went back to 32bit due to it always crashing I would of thought 64bit run smoother but it never did and yes I am using a 64bit operating system

Interesting. What DAW and OS are you on?

are you re-wiring any of these?
For the moment I've gone ahead and installed 64 bit cubase and using the energy-xt vst so that I can use the reason 4 samplers. Haven't had a hiccup yet. :)
btw, Welcome to the forums, Flintlock3r.

Thank you very much for you welcome :) as for rewiring, not yet. I'm currently just in experimental stages, testing out various DAWs to see which one flows the best.

I have Reaper for projects with a lot of recording (guitar stuff) and FL Studio for anything MIDI. I think Reaper is great for audio, but I hate its MIDI interface. FL Studio (as I'm sure you know) is excellent for MIDI, but recording audio in it is awful compared to something like Reaper. Honestly I think messing Rewire is an improvised solution at best because it's clunky and you have to deal with all the extra routing, being able to pass only 16 stereo tracks, dealing with two sets of transport controls, having to keep two project files and save them BOTH or you lose data when you close the host... but it works. I'm probably going to investigate something that works really well for recording audio and for working with MIDI.

I opted for cubase for those 2 reasons. I only use the rack in Reason 4 and sequence both midi and audio in cubase.

exactly.
I used to have a hardware based setup back in the day. and believe me, handling the 2 project files is nothing compared to firing up the old studio to work on a track and even then it wasn't 100% where you'd left it.

Thanks for the tip. I remember trying Cubase a long time ago when I started doing guitar, but I never even thought about Cubase as a MIDI program. Of course that long ago I knew absolutely nothing about production and I probably didn't even know what MIDI was. It's good to hear that there's something out there that can do both.

Yeah I guess I'm spoiled by soft-synths. I have no idea what goes into making a hardware setup work.

Have you got any examples of your guitar work? I know a few of us on here might like to hear that.
Personally been messing about with the concept of mixing hardcore and guitar for a while but never really too pleased with the result.
