If what i say is correct then SFP Mode is definitely your friend.
That's what I'm talking about. I think for XTC mode the Scope plugins should be in 64 bit, if you want to avoid the 32 to 64 bit bridge... But my guess is that Scope should be fully 64 bit to accomplish this.
Is this the nature of dsp-cards, or are all dsp-cards not (completely) 64 bit?

This will probably never change for any dsp platform. If what i say is correct then SFP Mode is definitely your friend.
Edited in: Well Protools may get around the Ram problem but the Native 64bit VST problem for other dsp Platforms i doubt will ever change, or do so anytime soon. Such is the nature of the dsp card.
OK, I understand.
Yeah, not a XTC/VSTim user here (anymore).
Also not sure jbridge would work with the Scope plugin dll's.

ALL dsp cards are of the 32bit architecture and require bridges when used inside 64bit Hosts (UAD, Powercore, duende, etc). This currently is the nature of dsp cards to my knowledge, not Sonic Core's fault.
However, Sonic Core are talented developers and have already done the impossible several times so i would'nt say they could not devise a bridge-less way of using SCOPE plugins as VSTs inside 64bit Hosts (make XTC function like SFP), but i'm pretty sure that will take alot of codeing and time, if possible.

Well, here with the latest 64-bit Scope (drivers), I'm running Samplitude (32) with jbridge running Superior 2 (64) and Kontakt 4.x (64) with no problems. So we're still transitioning.

Let me add: My info comes from what i've read on forums about the other dsp platforms (uad, powercore, etc) and forums are'nt always a good place to get info. You'll want to write a email to Sonic Core for confirmation/disproving. But i'm fairly sure what i say is correct (just not 100% sure), and all dsp platforms do currently need bridges and this alone suggests it is either difficult or impossible for their plugins to function like True Native 64bit VST's (without bridges). But again it's always best to go directly to the source for information aswell (Sonic Core). Get the info directly from the Horses mouth.
