[RWP] Question about downloading SWS files

[Scott Chesworth]

Chaps,

The version of SWS you install needs to match your version of Reaper,
not Windows. So, for 32-bit Reaper, you'll want 32-bit SWS, regardless
of whether that'll be running in 64-bit Windows or not. Downloading
the 32-bit SWS and popping the .exe file onto a memory stick to take
over to your offline machine shouldn't be a problem Indie.
