The 32-bit build of Vegas 9 is fine in that regard though, so it leaves me forever puzzled. And with just that one VST, suddenly playback drags to a crawl with any kind of moving of the mouse wheel or dragging the size of the dock up and down a little. Or I can open a new project and drop a wav into the timeline, and add just one instance of Ozone 3 to the track. And the preference for 'Keep bypassed FX running' is unchecked. GSnap is a very powerful tool given that its free. Trick is, I can open a mix from Vegas8 in Vegas9 64-bit, and manually bypass all effects, and when I re-enable them one-by-one, there's really no rhyme or reason to when it melts down. They could crash previous versions of Vegas.

For our tutorial, we used the free Bandlab Cakewalk program. Make sure your music software is compatible with either one. The only flaky set I use are the db-audioware Quantum FX plugs. Two versions are available: 32-bit and 64-bit. and GSnap (free, but always stable in previous versions of Vegas) I have had problems too many to number with Vegas 9 64-bit, so my reason for polling the community is to see how much of my problems could be caused by my VST's. Each has its function clearly labelled above, and features a user-editable readout below.

The GUI features a set of 12 knobs which control all of the plug-in’s parameters. Re: stability/reliability, this is really the kind of feedback I am looking for from the user base. It can be used subtly to correct the pitch of a vocal, or, with more extreme settings, to create a robot-voice effect.
