We're talking about Parameter IDs here, and I would say that using 14 bits as a limit, instead of 32 bits, is completely arbitrary and not related to anything.

The original question was: "Hi, out of curiosity is there a limit on the number of parameters an Audio Unit can posses? Or perhaps more likely, a practical limit to ensure host compatibility?"


And I _suggested_ that a practical limit _could_ be 16384 parameters. I think this is a reasonable statement, if a host (I don't know of any, but that was not the question anyway) would somehow store the parameter in the same way a registered or non-registered MIDI controllers, which are 14 bit.

And yes, it has nothing to do with the theoretical limit and the way parameters are stored by a host application or how their parameters are addressed.
