Well, I had never heard before, so I'l try.
But, do you know that I'm also unable to instal the update ? It says that js3.ini or somehing like that is missing.
let's try jBridge, I'll let you know what happens.

damn ! I have to pay for it !!! I won't pay for a prothesis.
I've just paid for JS3 upgrade. If I had known this, I would have done better to buy EZDrummer.
How long do you plan to release a x64 version ?

Well, it´s always good to make an INFORMED decision.
It´s a known fact that Jamstix is still 32 bit, for a reason.
And please, do me and others a favour and stop swearing and using strong words (it´s only your third post).
Constructive criticism on the other hand is always welcome, though.
I even understand your momentary frustration, but just don´t flame Ralph, please.

Sorry for the "strong words", I don't speak english very well, perhaps have I used a word I've just seen once and though it was "acceptable". Apologize.
(by the way, is it "damn" or "prothesis", or when I say I'd better buy EZDr ?)
Well, I have a lot of plugins x32 that works in x64. The fact is : I've switched to x64 a couple of days after upgrading to JS3 wich was working very good, during one wekk

This is not a solution but you could also use Cubase-32 under Win7 without needing to bridge JS3 for the time being or on a case-by-case basis.

Oddly... it worked OK for me a couple of times, but now when I open the very same project JS is no longer recognised. Very strange.
Anyway, it's no big deal for me to switch to Cubase 32-bit as I have both installed in anticipation of such eventialities.

Wonderful news! As of the 5.5.2 update to Cubase, Jamstix 3 now appears to work in Cubase 5 x64!
Unfortunately I needed to "thrash prefs" in Cubase 5 x64 and start anew ... look this up on the Cubase.net forum if you don't already know about this.
Even having done that, on the first run Cubase 5 x64 froze, but I could kill it in Task Manager and on the second and subsequent runs, it appears to be fine!
I haven't done any major testing but at least it's now loading. As I haven't changed anything about JS3, just updated Cubase to 5.5.2, it proves that the problem was with Steinberg, not with Rayzoon.

Unfortunately this didn't fix thigs for me. JS3 is still not found, and in fact after deleting the Cubase preferences I now have VST bridge errors occuring with other plugins that were previously working fine

On further testing, it appears we're not out of the woods yet. If I load JS3 in Cubase 5.5.2 x64 it loads fine, but if I close the GUI and try to re-open it, it doesn't redraw -- there's just a white window.
As a workaround I find if I uncheck "Cache GUI" in Options, it [i:bd2a2056d2]does[/i:bd2a2056d2] redraw on re-opening, but then some other strange things happen, e.g. main GUI window disappears when the style or player or other dialogs are open (but reappears when the dialogs are closed). This is different behavious compared to Cubase 5.5.2 32-bit.
Definitely a huge improvement overall but there's still a way to go. In the release notes of Cubase 5.5.2 one of the fixes is "#26383: Improved compatibility for the VST Bridge when using delphi-compiled plugins" ... I wonder would this have anything to do with it? Perhaps you can communicate with Steinberg devs that they are at least on the right track!
@Sherz: sorry to hear about your prefs problem!
