win 7 64 bit vst folder(s)

Hey there,

I just wondered (and read about) that ableton does support 64 bit vst, but I actually cant see any of them:
In my porgramm folder is my vst folder, which has two subfolders vst 32 bit and vst 64 bit, as ice heard, that both formats need to be kept seperatet.

But I've also read, that you should ableton only scan your 32 bit folder - also, my ableton just shows me the folder vst 32 bit and its contents, the other one ist recognized during scan.

So not to make such a great afford in dropping every vst i have as a 64 bit version in two directions: Is this just a bug, does ableton just hide the 64 bit version but uses it if its avaible?

So, thank you for oyur support!

Ableton Live can't use 64 bit VSTs because it's a 32bit program (even on Win764bit). It just ignores them.
