Talk about timing -- Pianoteq 3.6.7, which was just released, includes
32-bit and 64-bit native VSTs. There's no announcement on the website
yet, but the new version is online; the trial version, which includes
the VST plugin, is here:

I just tried it in Qtractor, and didn't have a lot of luck (I couldn't
get its GUI to appear, or get it to make noise), but the readme reports
success with Renoise and energyXT.

Thanks
Leigh
