Can Live 32 Bit and 64 Bit co-exist peacefully?

Post by rbro » Tue May 06, 2014 7:43 pm

I'm trying to move up to 64 Bit Live 9, but I still have some old projects containing 3rd party plugs that are only 32 bit. Can I have both 32 and 64 bit versions on the same machine without running into problems?

Yes, just rename the applications so they aren't both called the same thing. On my comp, I have one called "Ableton Live 9 Suite 32bit" and the other "Ableton Live 9 Suite 64bit", both work fine.

Yes but can you open a 32 bit project inside a 64 bit app?
