For me It constantly crashes Sonar X1, won't load properly... unusable.

I've only had it for a few days, but it seems stable so far.  I've been using SONAR in Windows 7 64bit for a couple of years now, and I was hesitant to pick up any new 32-bit software, but I've heard of enough people using it that I figured I'd be safe.  I've had a few other plugins that occasionally hang BitBridge when closing a project, but haven't had that happen yet with SampleTank.

It doesn't work for me with BitBridge or jBridge.

It runs well for me, but for some reason I have a ton of patches that either won't load or cannot be found...? Could be user error, but haven't spent time to diagnose. Been having too much fun with Z3ta2 lately...
 
Just barely jumped in on the Sonik Synth 2 deal, and my plan is to completely switch over to it from Sampletank. What a no brainer of a deal.
 
I actually really liked Sampletank. No complaints other than random patch issues.

I have had it for a couple of years and with 64bit Win OS all that time.  No problems or related crashes that I can recall.  I have not used it all that much because I find the GUI's fonts too small.  I have learned to use the Windows Magnifer for this issue, but that has been my only real complaint--the small GUI.  Like some others around here, I load all of my IK synth libraries (Miroslav, SampleTron, SampleMoog, SampleSynth) into SampleTank.   Many are also waiting for SampleTank3 and/or 64bit native.  Again, I have not had the trouble you are reporting, and I use it with Bitbridge in Sonar X1.

Been using it for years now - no issues whatsoever for me in Windows 7 64bit

I haven't even loaded ST on my new system yet. Not sure I'm going to either

Don't hold your  breath.   It may be years.

I've had a few crashes since installing new patches on it. Very annoying.

ST works for me but I stopped using it. I'm tired of straining my eyes to read that itty bitty gui.

The thing I HATE about ST is that all the sounds are clumbsy as in they are not organized very well. You have to search for a long time till you find a sound you want. Stack that on top of a itty bitty gui and who cares? Sad.....
