 * The *64-bit version* is built using Qt Creator with the *Microsoft Visual C++ compiler*. Install 64-bit Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and Qt 5.7 (or latest 5.x).

 * The *32-bit version* is built using Qt Creator with the *MinGW compiler*. Install Qt 5.7 (or latest 5.x) with Qt Creator and ensure that the 32-bit MinGW option is available.

 * The official 64-bit installer also includes some helper binaries from the 32-bit build, enabling it to use 32-bit Vamp plugins as well as 64-bit ones. So to make a 64-bit installer, we actually have to complete both builds.
