Though I'm not on the Apple team, it'd be pretty safe to say that the
32-bit audio stream is what we'll be sticking with for a long time. I
don't think the benefits (if there are any, speed-wise) of a 64-bit
audio stream versus the potential dynamic range gain of 32-bit vs 64-bit
(whose math escapes me currently) is probably not worth the paradigm shift.
Out of interest, VST 2.4 has just been announced, complete with 64bit sample
support (reflecting an initiative from Cakewalk, who are making a forceful case
for 64bit streams - I must admit to being a little skeptical myself). However,
my post was concerned only with 32/64 architecture, not sample size.
