Issues with Superior Drummer 2 in X1

Are you running the 64 bit version of X1 by any chance?
 
If so you need to download the latest version of Superior Drummer 2 from your Toontrack account, this has a native 64 bit version.
 
If you try to use the 32 bit version of Superior or EZDrummer in 64  bit Sonar using Bitbridge they will not load the samples.

But, if i have some presets saved on the 32-bit version, could i transfer it to the newly downloaded 64?

Yes - both the 32 and 64 bit versions will be installed and I am pretty sure the presets are shared. There is only one format for the producer presets pack.

I have this same exact problem... Allthough i do have the 64 bit superior drummer in the 64 bit sonar... it's really stressing me out. I have superior drummer v.2.3 by the way. Any help?

 
 
Ask this question on the Toontrack user forum and I'll give you a solution to the problem. 

FWIW, the is the same guy who was suggesting to a poster that he could download EZX libraries via torrents sites to avoid the expense.

Has anyone had luck fixing this issue?I already emailed toontrack and haven't heard back,I bought superior drummer and have upgraded it but cannot get it to work,it wont load the samples i guess.I ran the 64 bit installer(i have sonar x1 64bit on windows 7 64)but it looks like bitmeter still opens the superior in sonar.I really would appreciate some help.

i purchased jbridge for $15. fixed the problem straight away.was doing my head in. install and load vst via jbridge...cheers

You should have downloaded the 64 bit version in your user acount at the Toontrack site.  It's in (more or less) the same place as your activation codes.  You would have saved yourself $15.
 

hey mate, yeah i tried that(upgrading sd to 64bit) -(but i am completely new to home recording-obviously wasnt doing it right!)..ill have a crack at checking ths scan path as u have mentioned, and loading without jbridge.the problem i am facing now is superior drummer is loading fine but the sounds produced are 'distorted/crackly'(hows that for a technical term! ) im lead to believe this may be caused by a 'buffer size' problem? i have stuffed around in the preferences-driver settings-mixing latency, which makes a difference when i change buffer size.is there an ideal buffer size or any other light you may be able to shed on this for me...much appreciated...mick...cheers

If you are using Superior Drummer in a bridging adapter, you are liable to have many kinds of problems.  Upgrade to the latest 64 bit version first.  Try Superior Drummer in a project by itself to see if the issue is SD or not.  Then increase your ASIO buffers to 256 and see if that clears up the crackling.
