UAD Plugins won't open when I double click them in the console view

The above says it all, they won't open when i double click.

THis is really annoying as I am using the Studer A800 and have mutiple instances which all look identical so working out which one i have on say the snare vs the kick is proving impossible.

Any UAD guys out there want to share a tip with me to work round this Or am I missing something obvious.

    Why not set up a drum buss and sends to that with just one instance of the A800 on that?

    hm,.. I am starting to understand the issue..
    1st I thought it was an issue concerning only the console view, but seems that you lost focus on the plugins when double-clicking them in the fx-bin..
    yeah,.. I don't think that this is only applying to uad-plugins.. I'd guess that you use a 64-bit environment and bitbridge to run the uad-plugins (32bit) ??
    I've ran into so many issues with 32bit plugins (ok, I mostly use UAD plugins with my Quad), that I had to switch to Sonar x32 bit.. it makes life much easier!!!!
    Waiting for UAD to provide 64-bit plugins then I'll switch back to Sonar x64.
    I also assume that JBridge might be another solution for you if you have reasons not to switch to Sonar x32 bit. Still I might be totaly wrong.

    Hi there

    FIrstly apologies for not checking back to this thread, having a 5 month yr old daughter will do that :)

    Jack, I don't want to strap it accross the drum bus, the plug is designed to work accross individual tracks, the effect of it summing gives the feel of tube saturation or at least that is what UAD say, and so far I find it sounds pretty amazing.

    Frank I am using it in 64 bit mode, but without any bridge of any description, so either UAD have caught up or I am very lucky. HOwever it might be that you're right in 64 the plugs won't open when double clicked.

    The weird thing is that in Windows 7 the plugs all appear in a little icon down on the bar at the bottom of the screen and you can minimize maximize them from there, however this still does not solve the problem, it may be that UAD have skinned them with there own bridge and that explains the behaviour. If i could just put them in tab view that would be great but no joy.

    So basically I am not doing anything stupid, I either have to try 32bit or find a workaround (so far I have done it by saving the settings as a preset and giving that preset a name ie Snare Top that correspones with whats on the track, I still can't get them to pop up when i double click on them in console or track view, but at least when i click on the icon at the bottom of the screen I can look through them until I get to the one I want, its not really ideal but its the best I have at th emoment.

    ANyone using X1 with UAD does this problem exist there, it might be a reason to finally push me into upgrading.

    Hi Gordon.

    I am not seeing this issue.

    I don't have the Studer installed but all of my authorized plugs are working OK bridged in the 64 bit version of W7.

    S PE 8.53 (x64) + UAD SW v5.91
