Jamstix not seen by Cubase 5 64-bit on Windows 7 64-bit

RhythmicallyChallenged · Sun Nov 08, 2009 4:25 pm

Similar to other reports here, Cubase 5 64-bit on Windows 7 64-bit doesn't pick up Jamstix 2.5.2; I also tried it on Vists64 (multiple boot partitions on the same PC) and it doesn't work there either. Reaper 3 64-bit however, on the same PC, finds it, loads it and runs it without fault! You wouldn't even know it was a 64-bit host running a 32-bit plugin. So shame on Steinberg I guess ...

What I really want to ask is ... is there a 64-bit version of Jamstix on the way ... or is this even possible ... would it have to be a VST3 in order to work properly in Cubase 5-64?

(I've seen JBridge and will try the demo, but the fact is, it [i:41ba684eba]should[/i:41ba684eba] work as a 32-bit plugin with Steinberg's own bridge ...)

Steinberg's adapter is generally considered the worst (no offense to SB). Until they fix that (or we deliver a 64-bit version), you'll have to use jBridge.

Thanks Ralph ... is this confirmation that there [i:8a839940bd]will[/i:8a839940bd] be a 64-bit version of Jamstix sometime in the future? 8)

That's the plan.

RhythmicallyChallenged, can you use it via Reaper and ReaRoute into Cubase?

Just bumping this, now that Cubase 5 x64 has had an update (5.5) and hotfix (5.5.1) and still doesn't load JamStix 3.0.2 ... Ralph, is it really the VSTBridge that's at fault, or do we know the root cause of it failing?

[i:5407ad2ce9](@GregHolmes: thanks for the suggestion, but I can run C5 32-bit on the same machine as a work-around ... I'd just like to go all 64-bit and JS3 is the only plugin I own that's not working in C5 x64).[/i:5407ad2ce9]

Steinberg support just sucks, so I guess that Jamstix is not the problem, but the Cubase bridge.
I still use Cubase 4 32-bit on Windows 7 64-bit just to get out of troubles as much as possible. Besides that I use FX Teleport on the same machine to take advantage of 8GB RAM instead of 4GB.

BTW: There are still a few major plug-in manufacturers that are not 64-bit yet... like FXPansion and Arturia

I do have to blame the Steinberg bridge because Sonar's BitBridge and REAPER-64 can handle Jamstix 3 just fine.

Please, release asap a x64 version.
I've just reniewed my computer and every stuff with a Cubase 5 x64
The only plugin that doesn't work is Jamstix. I miss it hugely, the worst is I've just upgraded it to the version 3, so I'm over-disapointed now.

Even Virtual Guitarist 2, wich is discontinued, works !

Please.

We're doing our best but it will take a bit of time. Did you try jBridge?
