For the work I do, the issues are insignificant. My DAW is dual core
64bit and is used ONLY for music creation.
My compositions are done almost entirely with soft-synths, mostly
ZynAddSubFX. Heavy-duty number crunching like this really shows the
difference. There are voice patches I use that will barely run on a
32bit machine without pushing the processor to 100%, with only a few
notes sounding.
I know there are problems with VSTi but I don't use these at all so
it's not an issue for me. All office type work I do on a separate cheap
bog-standard machine.
