Strange X2a - JBridge Issue

I was just playing around with X2a because I purchased some new plugs.
This is also the first time I've run X2 since upgrading to TRacks CS.
No matter which plug-in I insert, it opens under JBridge. Well all except my Waves stuff.
I very rarely use 32 bit plugs and have only used JBridge once back in X!.
The plug I used JBridge on has gone 64 bit so I deleted the 32 bit version and all has been well.

Well until today that is. Has anyone else seen this?
I'm thinking it may have something to do with the IK Multimedia CSR update.

Going to uninstall JBridge and see if that does anything but I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem.

Thanks Markus.

Maybe I wasn't too clear on my issue.
I understand what jBridge is and why it's there.
I'm having trouble understanding why it's wrapping all of my 64 bit plug-ins.

I uninstalled it but don't have time right now to see if it's all better.
I'm guessing that since it's no longer on my system it probably wont be wrapping my 64 bit plugs.
I only have like five 32 bit plugs left but they work fine without bridging.

Thanks again.

Mike

Ahh, ok Beep. I'll look into that just in case there is the same option for BitBridge.

Mike

Wait a minute here.....

I thought you were the one who does all the reading and learnin' stuff and posting it here for us to see? 

AHHH, ok. I guess I could do a little leg work. 

Mike

OK. The Cakewalk Documentation is pretty weak to say the least.

So once again it's Google to the rescue.
Cakewalk should just offer a help button that when you press it just takes you to the Google search page.

Since un-installing jBridge all my plugs (32 and 64) load and work as expected.

Jeez Karl, thank's.


"apologies for any memory failures. I've already had one on here tonight."
Well I guess we can let you slide this once. Just don't let it happen again ok!


Seriously tho, no big deal. And I do remember seeing that setting in X1 but couldn't seem to find it in X2. 
The thing that has me a little perplexed is that jbridge was loading on my 64 bit plugs too.
Why would anyone want to do that. Is that even an option or even possible?
I'm guessing something somewhere was all screwy. 
Not sure if it was X2 or jbridge but now that jbridge is gone all is well.

Bit late now but there's an option to turn of jbridge in the  plugin properties. I'm not at my DAW at the mo so I'm working from memory....

Open the plugin manager
Click on the VST you want to change
Click on the "Plugin Properties" button
There's an option there to uncheck "open under jbridge" or something like that.
You can also do a whole group at once by setting a folder default IIRC. Maybe how it ended up running like that in the first place.

HTH and apologies for any memory failures. I've already had one on here tonight.

I've gone through the properties for each plug in and checked the jbridge box for each 32-bit plug and made sure it was unchecked for each 64-bit plug.  So, the wrapper comes up only when needed.  It's a bit time-consuming if you have a lot of plugs but it has worked without a glitch for me, even when mixing plugs of different formats in a track.

Back at the DAW.....................and it seems my memory isn't too bad. Step 4 should read "Load using JBridge wrapper" though. I'll go stand on the naughty step.


It is possible to do whole folders at once. That is done from Preferences--->File--->VST settings. In the "VST Scan folder(s)" window click on the folder you want to change and then "Folder defaults". Of course if you have 64 & 32 bit VSTs in the same folder that's not much use.
