You are right. They will have to re-code to take advantage all of that raw
power.
But, I think one area where 64 bit code can help in, and that is wiith digital
Summming. I think for a lot of DAWs, a bigger pipe could help..Right now,
32bits is ok , until you start hitting the sum bus hard.

Maybe, just maybe , they start instituting "modeling" of famous analogy mixers
summing..

I disagree with you about 32 bit being enough. As with Asio and vst. You
know that when you start bogging down down a project with audi

f binary numbers (where a place holder squares the available
numbers) it's just comical to pretend we need a 64 bit words. Particularly
when we'll have to halve our available DSP.

Personally I think a lot of the discussing of 'summing busses' is snake oil.
But even if you do believe in that, as I kno
