It’s an interesting factoid about jbridge, I wasn’t aware of that (unrepentantly so mind you), but all 32-bit applications on Mac can address 4GB already under 10.4 or above (as in have the possibility to), so this is pretty standard on Mac at this point… I believe there was in fact some outcry in the early days due to Core Audio (or was it Logic specifically?) not allowing this extended memory space to be used by Audio Units, hence why some companies looked at under the hood memory servers solutions.

With ProTools 9 being 10.6 only, this is a sign of things to come and a first step in the right direction. As for Cubase, the product presentation (of the latest version) make it clear this is most definitely in the works already. MOTU and Ableton have been very forthcoming in the past with moving fast on key aspects such as this (several MOTU hardware are already shipping with 64-bit drivers, which again is a sign).

… I have to state that I am purposely not on hand with any insider info however and drawing any hasty conclusion in respect to your DAW in the next few months (if not already 64-bit) would be wishful thinking. In truth I am far from an expert on this subject so some info herein may be borderline incorrect, for which I make no apology.

Anyway, my point being, starting work on a memory server at this stage – and I make no secret that none is in the work, or as been attempted – would be a big waste of resources that would make our product development (i.e improved and matured) slow down significantly. I think we owe our user base more than this 😉
