Is ProX6 backwards compatible to Samplitude 11 .VIP recordings?

After 10 years of tons of Samplitude 11 usage on my Win 7 desktop and laptop, I'm thinking the unthinkable of upgrading everything to Win 10 and Pro X6. This is something I've been very reluctant to do because of potential backwards compatibility issues with old recording sessions, VSTi's etc, but I know it's something I eventually have to do as Win 7 is unsupported and increasingly a dangerous liability. So my question is, how backwards compatible is ProX6? Will I be able to open/edit sessions recorded on the old Samplitude 11 and use older 32 bit VSTi's that I have? Oh, and, like the old version, is it ok to install ProX6 on one desktop and one laptop simultaneously? I don't use the programs simultaneously, but use the desktop in my studio, and the laptop when I'm playing live. Both computers are i7 processor, 16GB RAM, both use SSD disks, about 5 years old, so I think they should be ok for the upgrade. Thanks for any thoughts on this!

@drewmo

Are you aware there is a dedicated forum for Samplitude Pro users here?

I think you would be best advised to register at and repost your question there since there are few users of Samp. Pro who visit and post here.

Ah, no I wasn't aware of that. Thanks Jeff!
