IK Philharmonik Not Recognized in 64 bit X1.

Bump - Anyone???

In plugin manager select philharmonic in the centre window then options where you can access the plugin settings. There select to run as a synth. Somehow SONAR is seeing it as an fx. I'm not at my SONAR right now but will get back later today with more precise details if you haven't been able to get there from my approximate explanation.
When you say that it works in other 32bit daws I assume that you are using the 32 bit version of SONAR in which case Bitbridge is not an issue.
Telling us you are using Win 7 x64 does not however tell us SONAR 32 or 64 bit.

Hi,
I remember having an issue when installing Miroslav on my Win 7 64 for use in 8.5.3. I am now running X1 and Miroslav is working fine.
 
When I installed Miroslav, it was installed here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IK Multimedia\Miroslav Philharmonik
 
I have my VST scan folders set to the 2 cakewalk vst folders:
C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Vstplugins
& C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\Vstplugins
 
In order to get the Miroslav to work, I needed to copy 2 files into the (x86) cakewalk vst folder:
Philharmonik.dll
& Philharmonik.ini
 
The dll file could be found in your Miroslav folder. The ini is a configuration file I believe I found online some where (i didn't have it anywhere in the Miroslav install folders).
This is what is inside the ini file (copy this and save it in wordpad with the name Philharmonik.ini):

ChannelsOut=ASK

Hope this helps.

friendly bump

Thanks Dave, i'll try that, I was wondering if it's a 32/64 bit issue. I'll post my results!

Hi all, fixed! I installed Sonar X1 32bit, loaded up Philharmonik, and it worked! So it is a 32/64 bit issue. Well, now I've got that fixed, I guess a little runaround I will have to use is, put down my strings in Philharmonik in 32bit Sonar, convert them to audio files, then import the audio files into Sonar 64 for the rest of my projects, what do people think?
 
Thanks Dave for the help!

If it is fixed, why the bump? There are 32bit plug-ins that do not work in a 64bit host. When BitBridge does not work some use JBridge and get good results. Ultimately bridging tech is a temporary solution while the vendors update plug-ins to 64bit. Yes, that means that some plug-ins will get left behind. The only solution for using those plug-ins is the one you have already employed, using the 32bit host.

I've been using Philharmonik since Sonar 7. I ran into the same problem when I purchesed X1. I'm now on X3 and I STILL havn't been able to fix the problem. But I know the responsibility of the problem is in IK media. No cakewalk. They've yet to make a 64 bit update.

I had a similar problem in SONAR X3  on my end and the fix was very simple
( bear in mind this may be of absoluty no  help to you whatsoever ) 
it turns out that Philharmonic installed the dll's in a  X 86 VST folder that I didn't have SONAR set to scan ..
in my case the Philharmonic dll's  wound up in my SONY X 86 VST folder 
I knew something was up when I had the fully operational synth available in SONY Acid Pro...
once I pointed my SONAR plugin manager to scan  that folder and did a fresh scan everything worked out fine
it scanned my Philharmonic , Sampletron , and Sampletank ….
all are working fine  in SONAR X3 64 bit using the bit bridge
good luck I hope you sort it out ,

I've got Philharmonic and SampleTank working in a 64 bit environment as well.
As Kenny noted, be sure the dll in in the scan path for Sonar.
I fought with SampleTank for a while. It would scan, and show up in the VST list, but I would get the "not properly installed message when I attempted to insert it. Turns out the problem was apparently related to UAC.
My solution:
Run the IK plug-ins as admin.
Find the SampleTank.exe file. I installed it to its default location, which was C: ProgramFiles(x86)/IK Multimedia/SampleTank 2.5.
Right click>Properties>Compatibility. Check the Run as Administrator box.
The dll is in Program Files(x86)/Cakewalk/Vstplugins.
I installed Philharmonic the same way, and both function normally.

I'm going nuts with this.
I ran Miroslav in Windows 7, 64 bit, Sonar X3e for a year. No problems at all, no bit bridge, no JBridge, easy.
Computer crash. New computer. Nightmare.
I upgraded: Windows 8.1, 64 bit, also took the opportunity and upgraded to Sonar Platinum.
I think I finally have everything (that I really need, anyway) working.
Except Miroslav.
Tried installing in compatibility mode.
Tried installing in Programs (86) vst, in regular Programs folder vst, in the default IK media folder.
Tried copying the dll and ini files into different folders (as suggested above).
I checked my scan paths and I am scanning everything that Miroslav shows up in.
Uninstalled and re-installed this so many times, I can do it in my sleep.
I contacted IK Multimedia, and they were useless, just telling me to run as administrator. I replied to them, but my expectations are low.
At this point, I would have been better off just wasting more money and buying another program.
I'm disgusted.
Any help, please?

You probably already know this, but did you do a VST reset AND re-scan, and install the latest IK version from their web site?

Not sure if this will be of any use to you Jones082, but if you happen to have Sampletank 3 (which is 64bit), the Miroslav library can be loaded into it as a legacy instrument thus avoiding 32bit woes altogether.

Not that I know of. ST3 is a huge improvement on ST2.5 so you would be getting that as well:)

Following the 2 threads attentively 'cause I was about to push the button when I thought I'd check the forum for issues . I'll review after a night's sleep.
 
Cheers  for everyone's input.
