Default 64 bit processing, etc.

Any thoughts on audio software evolving into 64 bit
architectures? That would probably kill the argument that
you need to go analog to mix due to summing issues.


There is a "64 bit" wav file format that has some charm, but it doesn't
require anything but 32 bit XP.


The 64 part of the W64 spec is just that the header is 64-bits. The
bitdepth is not 64 bits.
