I know 1.4 is 64 bit but will it be multicore?

if anyone can answer that it would be appreciated.thx

I hope so...

Also does anybody know if the Plugin version will also be 64 bit?

(hope you don't mind I added that question to your thread, i've been meaning to ask both of these questions, you just reminded me )

So what do you mean by multicore? I guess I missed this one.......

Yes. Dan clearly states that no more 32bit bridge will be needed...watch the Elfnt video...

I'd guess if it were multi-core, they'd broadcast that. So I don't think it will be.

They would certainly highlight this feature if/when this function is available in the MPC software.

makes sense,I agree

64 bit will allow addressing over 4GB of RAM, but you want multicore support too. With multicore/multithread support an app can utilize all available CPU cores, physical and virtual. (Virtual cores double the amount of physical cores, allowing more multi/hyper threaded instructions to be run).

Long story short, with Maschine as the example 64 bit lets you use huge amounts of RAM but all instruments and FX are running off one core. You can pound it to it's knees pretty easily with just a few plugins.

Multicore/multithread generally results in anywhere from from 25%-200% CPU usage efficiency increases. So you always hope modern software will be both 64 bit and multicore enabled to use all your RAM and all your available CPU.

thx beautiful explanation

I love it thanks, I feel I gained some great knowledge.

Rite now I am running 4 instances of massive, 1 FM8 2,omnisphere, Zebra and list of drum samples. With about 10 fx plugins. And my CPU hits like 18 on the meter. So ur saying I could have access to more with proper programming to 64bit? All Of this was in a plugin to Abelton.

Give me more more more.

Yeah more, more, more is why you want 64 bit+multicore/thread+massive amounts of RAM. Those are good numbers you listed for a 32 bit app. Ableton even as a 32 bit app multi threads pretty well. So that right there shows how beneficial it is.

So with the Live example if you run the 64 bit 8 beta or version 9, you could still probably have even more VST's loaded and the ASIO/Core Audio meter should stay relatively the same. Then the extra RAM 64 bit allows could allow you to loaded multiple GB's in each Omnisphere for crazy layering or multitimbral stuff.

Metatron your a wealth of knowledge.

Thanks for the explanation Metatron. I didn't know that about multicore.

my english are not very good and i know sh@t about computers.so i'm asking to make it clear, if 1.4 is 64 bit but no multicore how much better (how much more power) the software will run, how much power will use from my 16 giga ram?

p.s. my pc is 4 core i-5 16ram 3.30ghz
