UAD2 - Bit Bridge or J-Bridge

Is there a recommended bit bridge to use with the UAD2 plugins?  Just wondering... I have a suspicion that the UAD2 stuff is making my x64 X1 sessions unstable.

Thanks in advance,
Jim

    I run a Duo in x64 running the bit bridge. Never an issue - loads to 98%.
    Here's hoping 64 bit UAD is out real soon.

    Never an issue with Bitbridge.

    Good news, sometime this year UAD will be 64bit.

    I had issues last week with BitBridge on Sonar x64 while running UAD's EMT Plate 140 reverb on a bus. It caused all kinds of funky problems including crashes, freezes, etc. I tried the demo of jbridge and the problems stopped immediately. I seem to remember 64-bit drivers are a "Summer 2012" thing at this point, along with Windows 7 support for Apollo and the Satellite line. Peace, Tunes

    Try them both, find what works in your room, and wait for the new drivers.

    Tunekicker....

    I am having the same issues with UAD2 and X1, crashes weird stuff, etc... I think I will try and run under the j-bridge and see if that ameliorates these issues.

    Thanks,
    Jim

    PS - can't wait for x64 UAD plugs either
