    Default VSTs - 32 or 64 bit?

    I may sound a bit retarded now!

    I have Windows 7 64 bit on my PC. I run Ableton, which is obviously a 32 bit app.

    If I install a VST, do I install the bit version of the host or the bit version of the OS? That is, would I isntall the 32 or 64 bit version of the VST?
    Ableton 9.7.5, Native Instruments Komplete Ultimate 11, MOTU 828 Mk2, Nektar Impact LX61+, Ableton Push, Native Instruments Kore 2, and a random selection of soft synths and sample libraries.
    Windows 10 Pro 64 bit with Core i7 4960X Extreme Edition 12 core CPU, 64GB RAM, SanDisk Ultra Extreme SSDs and a GeForce GTX 970 G1 Gaming GPU.

    You want the 32 bit version. Ableton cannot handle 64 bit VST's yet. Save the 64 bit DLL in a seperate folder for later, just in case.
