64 bit internal processing

Interested in getting more HQ style plugins. I know that all the Fabfilter Pro plugins are 64bit internal float processing, but is the rest of the collection held that same high standard?

Ummmm, anyone know the answer?

Hi Ray,

For all plug-ins, we choose whether 64-bit internal audio processing is actually needed; for dynamics and eq'ing, it's quite important, but for many cases, 32-bit processing does the job just as well :-)

For us, the most important thing is always that the end result is of the highest possible quality, and if 64-bit audio processing is needed to achieve that, we will use it!

Cheers! Floris

I should've chosen my words more carefully because these are awesome plugsin and 32 bit FP does very well for processing audio. Thanks Floris I have the information I was looking for. I'll have Timeless & Saturn very soon!
