Sonar X2 (64bit) and 32bit pluggins

By mistake I tried to load a 32bit pluggin into SonarX2 (64bit) and Sonar froze. Is there a program(bridge) out there that can allow 32bit plugins to work in SonarX2(64bit).
Thanks
Ron L

    It happens automatically in SONAR via the BitBridge server however; some plug-ins do not work well with BitBridge. Some find JBridge an inexpensive 3rd party solution works better. Then some 32bit plug-ins just don't work in 64bit hosts.

    In principal there is no reason why you can's use 32 bit VST plugins in 64 bit Sonar, however as scook says some do not work well, Bitbridge is automatically engaged when you try to load a 32 bit VST, unless you have JBridge and have told Sonar's plug in manager to use JBridge for that plugin.
     
    In my experience the ones that dont work well with Bitbridge are those that load samples or poorly written cheap/free stuff.
     
    This was a pretty hot topic back in the days when 64 bit applications were less well developed.  Here is a thread I started in 2009 which still may contain some useful information http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/1829581
     
    32 bit DXi plugins are another matter, they will not run in 64 bit Sonar unless you use some sort of DXi- VST wrapper.

    Thanks for the replies.
    Yes, it was a free plugin.  Its called "CS-12M Master Channel Strip 1.67" by Terry West Productions. It looks pretty cool and I did have it running on another application and it sounded great.
     
    Thanks again

    If you want to continue to use 32bit plug-ins, the best solution is to install a 32bit host. The 32bit versions of SONAR can be installed without affecting the 64bit versions.
