Ben Anoniem Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I wonder if it is possible to improve bitbridge to the level that Jbride has already reached. This is because many of my dearly paid 32-bit VSTs do not work with Bitbridge but with Jbridge. You would do it to a lot of people, I think.

Robert Bone Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 It won't happen. If memory serves, Bitbridge was developed externally, and purchased by the original Cakewalk folks. My memory is pretty foggy on that, so apologies if I got that wrong. J-Bridge is something like $20 to buy, and for those who wish to continue to use 32-bit plugins, where those plugins do not properly function using Bitbridge, then the 2 remaining choices would be to either purchase J-Bridge (and not all will work there either), or seek out replacement plugins that are 64-bit, and just leave the 32-bit plugins with issues behind.....Actually, one other option would be to maintain a 32-bit installation of Sonar (Cakewalk by Bandlab is only 64-bit), and do the work needing 32-bit plugins in the 32-bit Sonar, and either finish those projects in that manner, or port the finished tracks back over into a 64-bit Sonar or Cakewalk by Bandlab. Most folks have either entirely done away with using 32-bit plugins, or keep a very very small number of them, where they work with Bitbridge or J-Bridge.

Ben Anoniem Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 Hello Bob, Bitbridge was, I thought, developed by FX-Max.com. But I can be wrong. If Bitbridge was purchased by Cakewalk, then the property rights and development opportunities have not been included? Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Bone Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I do not remember enough about the integration of Bitbridge into Sonar, to be able to discuss - perhaps purchase was not correct - perhaps license would be better, I do not know. In any case, in my opinion, Bitbridge will not see any further development, because regardless of its place in the world in terms of whether or not they COULD develop it further, the entire industry has moved to using 64-bit plugins, so there is no business incentive to further the use of 32-bit plugins in a 64-bit world. So - J-Bridge is more robust, and runs about $20, last I knew, so that would seem the best chance of obtaining something that might allow the continued use of a 32-bit plugin that struggles to work under Bitbridge.

This has worked for me with some VST's that do not show up otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Anoniem Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 I have indeed tried that. But I bought Jbridge and all my problems are solved. It only cost 14.99 euros … But Thanks anyway for your advice! Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
