Anyone got Soundtrek Drummer plug-in to work with Sonar 8.5 64 bit?

Has anyone successfully got the Soundtrek Drummer plug-in to function properly in Sonar 64 bit?

I have no problem getting Soundtrek's Drummer to work with the 32bit version of Sonar on my 64bit OS (the plug-in is a 32 bit midi effect), but when I try to use it in the 64bit version of Sonar, it does not work.

The Soundtrek site suggests that the plug-in bests works in Sonar as a MFX (midi fx) which works fine in 32bit Sonar, but not at all in 64 bit Sonar.   Soundtrek also suggests an alternative option of "wrapping" the Drummer dll in a VST Wrapper; Soundtrek gives a link to download  the VST wrapper.  While the wrapper does wrap the Drummer dll in the dxshell, it makes the plug-in into a VST instrument and not a VST effect.  The problem is that Drummer functions as a effect not an instrument.  One can load it as a Synth VST, but it does not work right.

BTW, I also tried it with JBridge, but no luck.

So has anyone got around this dilemma?  Has anyone got Soundtrek's Drummer plug-in to work properly in Sonar 64bit?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    Bump.  It has been a while and I just got an email today from Soundtrek advertising their Pro, but this  caused me to remember that I have never got their Drummer to work in 64bit Sonar; so I dug up this old thread.  
     
    I have tried numerous times to get SoundTrek Drummer to work with Sonar X2a but it does not work with the 64bit version.  The 32bit version of Sonar is fine, but not the 64bit.  I have tried numerous times to get the vst wrapper to work, but it does not work for me.  I know it works in Cubase as i have read reports of that, but I see no evidence of it working in Sonar except in 32bit versions.
     
    It only cost me $39 but it has been a pain in that I spent a great deal of time and energy trying to get it to work.  I have really abandoned this and now just use Toontrack EZPlayer Pro, EZDrummer and Superior Drummer, and Slate's stuff and sometimes Jamstix3.  
     
    The email today just got me curious again--enough to dig around and see what evidence there is that SoundTrek Drummer works with 64bit Sonar.  i find none.  So
     
    Has anyone every gotten SoundTrek Drummer to work in Sonar 64bit?
