VEP7 license, as you may guess, is Not backward compatible,Īnd worse VEP7 does Not have 32-Bit support, because Apple / OSX Requires deleting 32-Bit support if want to be OSX Catalina Approved. SolidStateLogic Duende Native license is Backward v6 & v5 compatible 'very rare', SoundToys v5 ilok license is Not backward compatible, PTHD12.7 comes with HD11 & HD10 ilok bundle licence for backward compatibiliy,īackward compatibility is something most software developers do Not understand or care. Old music can be done with new HW, there are youtube tutorials. There was a previous golden era, the Atari ST midi studio with Steinberg Cubase or C-Labs Notator, everything in Hardware, samplers, mixers, everything. The 2005 Quad G5 was very powerful, as good or more as 2007 Q6600, but changed from PCI to PCIe, PCI soundcards like Digi001 were abandoned, had water cooling leaks, etc. Most audio software was designed for 32-Bit G4 cpus with OS9.2, OSX Tiger 10.4 or OSX 10.5 Leopard, almost none for 64-bit G5 optimized. Pro studios were Not using CPU only, were using DSP cards like Creamware Scope, Protools Mix, UAD, Yamaha DSP factory DS2416, TC Powercore, Korg Oasys, and others. Technology has evolved very much in 10 years. 48khz and requires Mix Farm pci cards $$$. firewire was on the edge, but today Focusrite Clarett USB have professional quality at a decent price impossible a few years back. Most people had Digi001 pci or similar pci soundcard, RME, Lynx Studio, etc. With today crazy fast Apple i9 MacBookPro lines have blurred.Īlso USB soundcards was Not possible in the past because the limited CPU power, impossible in a Pentium4 1-core, Specially Protools 12.7 softube modular, some pspaudioware, etc. Most plugins like faster cores than many but slower cores in audio, Usually laptop was helper, towers were q6600 or better.

The main pc was usually the more powerful tower, in that time laptops were very limited, dual core. You could install 64-Bit XP, Vista or 7 but audio software was 32-Bit. Large Sample libraries was Not possible because the 4GB '3.7GB' limit of 32-Bit OS & software, Long ago many people used fxmax teleport in windows xp, vista and 7, 32-bit only.
