Nice Dave!

Thanks for the awesome news!!!

re. ProteusVX.  I may have spoken a little too soon.  It installed fine as a standalone, but in Sonar 8.5 64 +W7 64 I just get a white screen when I open the synth properties.  Need to do a bit more on this I think...

I thought I'd mention that it was posted by Toontrack staff in the Toontrack forum that 64 bit native versions of EZdrummer and Superior 2 are in development and are likely to be released before the end of the year.  I won't deny that.
 
As far as what I can say for the record - I can say that in my weekend set up of a new Win 7 64 bit DAW, setting up a working USB wireless network adapter and my email account caused most of the work.  Things are looking good.

Whooo Hoooo!!!

Well this is a really strange one, I have nomad factory producer pack and all these plugins were picked up and ran without a hitch under Sonar x64. Last night I upgraded this to the Integral Studio bundle as it was an offer that was hard to refuse considering the price.

Now when I scan the plugins it on picks up 4 of them instead of 40+. I uninstalled this and put the producer pack back on and all plugins from this pack were found. I have been in touch with Nomad Factory and they say have they haven't changed anything just added more plugins. So I am unsure why under one installer I can get all the plugins included, however on the newest one I get only 4.

Okay I am replying to my own post as I have fixed it. I saw another thread about uninstalling sonar and starting again as I had used the web-update to get to version 8.5. This has fixed the problem and also I got rid of the odd audio popping so all is well again and I didn't bother installing the 32-bit version of Sonar.

One happy Sonar user again :)

Installed 8.5 64 bit today. All pretty painless so far. A couple hours installing and configuring at the most. The rest of the time testing. I will post a full list of what's working later but here is a quick update.
 
Kitcore Delux and Drumcore 3 CM (free version form Computer Music mag) run with full functionality under Bitbridge 2 dispite a post on the Submersible forums saying JBridge was required for Drumcore and even then it did not find its audio loops. More stringent testing may be needed to see if I can replicate the problem reported by Cliffsp8.
 
Yellow Tools Independence Free needs JBridge. The sound judders and is distorted using Bitbridge 2.
 
Protieus VX crashes Sonar in both Bitbridge 2 and JBridge. Wood67 says it works so I will have to play around a bit.
 
EZDrummer working well through JBridge.
 
Everything else I have tested is working fine either as native 64 bit or using Bitbridge 2.
 
 

Anyone got Atmosphere running.  I got it installed but cannot get it authorized get stuck on scanning the dll.  I ran as install and Sonar as administrator and even temporary turned off UAC but still no go.  Any ideas to get this to run on WIn7 64-bit.  Have not tried Jbridge yet wonder if that will do it?  Also going to contact Spectrasonics tomorrow but they have a three day response time left message yesterday.

Thanks.
Steve

Team got it to work thanks to a Cakewalk member called StillFox.  I used his suggestion of using chainer to get it authorized and that did the trick.  Sonar Forums are the best keep up the good work.

Thanks,
Steve

I can confirm that KitCore works with jBridge in Windows 7. in Sonar 8.5.

It does not work with BitBridge, and will crash Sonar when attempting to open a project containing KC unless it is configured to use jBridge.

I can now confirm Kitcore need Jbridge. Kitcore can be inserted and it works inside Sonar using Bitbridge until you try to save the project. Sonar then crashes.
 
I have also configured Drumcore 3 CM to use Jbridge and it seems to be working fine.

Here is the current state of play. All my "mission critical" VSTi's are working. Most of the effects I use are bundled with Sonar so I am not anticipating too many issues.
