kakku Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Hi. I bought a synth again from Superwave. Big mistake it would seem imo. The price was right imo although the sounds ofc sounded better on their site. But what turns me completely off and down is the bit thingy. They have 2 versions of synths that show x86 an dx64. I would think most people agree that x64 means 64 bit. But it seems the www.superwavesynths.com company thinks it means a 32 bit synth with 64 bit daw compatibility. When I look in the Task Manager the Cakewalk thingy has company. It isays 32 bit Teleport server when I put a synth of theirs on the fabulous CbB and also Superwave_core.exe. I think that is simply conning customers to put x64 if it is not 64 bits. Am I right or wrong please tell me. They have trials but ofc I noticed too late this conning(?)

Bajan Blue Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 does all sound a bit strange - on their support site it says Q12. Can I use SuperWave plugins on a 64-bit operating system? Yes! If you are using a 64-bit VST Host then you will need to download and install the x64 version of the plugin(s). If you are running your VST Host in 32-bit mode then download and install the x86 version of the plugin(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajan Blue Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Having had a quick look around the interweb, it would appear these are old Synth Edit 32bit Synths - as Synth Edit is no more I believe, I assume bridging is the only answer But it seems very naughty of them to not make this clear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if there is a 64 ´bit SE then why they did not use that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kakku Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 Thank you gentlemen. I should have come here to ask for advice before buying but you know me, too eager and brains of a beaver...:D Luckily the synth was not expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kakku Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I decided to ask from the software seller on this matter, but probably they will not answer or claim that I am wrong. We will see. P.S. I sent them/him this, not the best lines though: Hello. I installed your software and despite you claim it's 64 bit, it says on the Task Manager, that your software is 32. Very strange. Luckily you sell your software at cheap prices although unused software should be free Edited July 18, 2019 by kakku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
