PLParEQ - Anyone else addicted?

In the recent moving from Sonar 8.3.1 on XP to Sonar X1 on Win 7 64, the only thing I'm missing is the ability to use the PLparEQ. Refined Audiometrics dont appear to have made a Win 7 version - in fact the website appears to have been dormant for ages. This is frightfully distressing! Does anyone out there know anything I don't?

Also: what's a good replacement for Antaris Autotune - something that does the basic tuning on the fly, is 64 bit and doesn't need an iLok.
Think I need a cuppa tea.
Cheers

    i assume you meant a 64-bit version, not a win7 version?
     
    if so, does the bitbridge thing work for you?

    It wont work properly in Win 7 32bit. When bridged and running in 64 bit, it behaves rather less well than it does in 32 bit mode.
    Hmmm ...

    Yip. No reply.  The site was last updated several years ago. But, I did get it to sort of work by by JBriging it to 32 bit. Do you have the PLPar?

    yessir, plpareq3, and when i'd had a hd crash and lost stuff, they resent my registration pdf within a day or so - this was in january 2010; it also works fine in win7/32 for me (but not tested in x1)

    If you have the X1 Producer, I just use the built in pitch correction. I use it on every song. I don't "auto" tune anything though. I use all manual adjustments so the vocals sound natural, even when solo'd out still.

    I've heard auto tune is good. I'd really like to check out Melodyne at some point.

    Yes. After several days of playing, I have it JBridged (14 euros well-spent) and functional in both 32 & 64. The main issue is not now with X1 but with its behaviour with the Cakewalk wrapper, inside Sony CD Architect. I need it in the CDA chainer for mastering work. What I've found is that it will work in the chainer only by playing the chain with the PLPar first turned off and then, once under way, turning it on. Otherwise it loops on a 10/th second loop. Still ... onwards and upwards!
    Thanks guys for all your suggestions.
