Overall the only important question is what hosts will do on 64Bit. Do any
of you any other 64Bit compatible AU host other than AULab?

None that I know of.

I almost totally migrated my CarbonViewBased AU to using a Cocoa UI but have
no other app to test with and just found out that GarageBand 09 doesn't
include a 64Bit version.

You're right it doesn't. I'm pretty sure they will come out with a 64bit version when Snow Leopard is ready...


I was about to ask about 64 bit hosts, for entirely different reasons! Because my additive synth is very register heavy in its inner loops, I see a significant performance improvement in the x86_64 version over the i386 version. (Like, 20 - 30%). Currently I'm happy running it under the minimal host I wrote that lets me to run the synth standalone, but I'd like to know if there are any "real" 64 bit hosts out there.

By the way, I don't know if anyone else has noticed it, but Mac OS seems to occasionally get itself into a state where it prefers to run the 32 bit code rather than the 64 bit code. During debugging I thought I was going mad, so I modified the code and now the 64 bit version of my code displays a special indicator in my UI. For testing, I also found it helpful to use /usr/bin/lipo to split out 32- bit-only and 64-bit-only executables from AULab, just to remove any last traces of doubt about what I was running.....
