can i upgrade from acid pro 7 to acid pro 8

Why is all of this important? Because it all relates to the memory space the VST occupies and uses as a guest on your DAW. Why do we want 64bit VST's? Because of the 64 bit VST has a great ability to handle memory in complex or large Acid music production and situations more efficiently which then also allows for greater precision for the VST as a guest in your new 64-bit DAW. You will have to buy their VST-64bit counterparts(recommended by me). Why did I say most? Because you may have to re-install (not recommended) some of your old VST32's on Acid64 Pro 8 and they may not load. acd project files will load as I previously stated. Thanks Ed, good luck! But FYI, most of your previous. You will still get the full product version but installed in a new location once it verifies that you are correctly previously licensed Acid customer.

Rather, you can tell it install to a new location. So buy the upgrade to save on cash, but do not allow it to update or overwrite your current config. It just scans and polls your machine to see if you were previously licensed properly. You can still buy the upgrade to Acid Pro 8 and tell it to do a fresh and clean install. Your Acid Pro 7 experience would still be 32-bit. Although you ran Acid Pro 7 (32-bit) on a Win64 PC, that really means absolutely nothing. But with 64 bit support finally and VST3 support, it's a new animal, and that is a welcome long overdue change. Typically when these DAW's changes corporate hands sometimes the new vendor just slaps on their corporate branded identity and that's that. Hey Ed! I used to use Acid Pro 7 long ago, it was seemingly sent to the graveyard for it's lack of VST-64 support.
