Sorry. Nothing did the job. I altered Core Parking at register level (as a sublink suggested). I set the Speedstep to disabled. I reset all VSt plugs and scanned them again. Between all actions I had a cold restart. I experimented with different ASIO settings and audio buffers. What else?
 
Anyway, many thanks for your help,

Today I've got a PM from Dan Le. Cannot answer this as PM, because of my "Forum status".
Dan, I did everything you asked. No success. Nor on 32 bits, nor 64 bits.
 
Thank you for your efforts

Dan Le - did you just change the tempo for the whole project?
 
Try starting with tempo A, then in the middle of the project somewhere
insert a ritard to tempo B.

I am writing/doing classical music. Tempo changes are everywhere. I disabled both Altiverbs and almost immediately when enabling the first instance (for the solo violin), the stuttering begins. With reason because the tempo changes.
 
Dan Le, I'll give up, unless somebody must have that one and only solution. I installed/re-installed/deleted/amended the register/reset the plugins/cleaned my system from the older SONAR versions/etc..... so many times since last Saturday.......that I lost faith in SONAR X3e in combination with Altiverb 6 (both 32 bits versions). Even with 64 bits versions of SONAR it didn't work, using that bitbridge server thing.
 
Thank you for trying helping me, but I really think it is useless,

I would personally be pretty suspicious of future support for Windows from Audioease, since they have been announcing version 7 for Windows for five years now and have been selling old copies of 6 under that pretense. Even if it does arrive I'd be wary. It's a really nice plug but it's not the only solution.

As much as I LOVED a freeware synth called MinimogueVA, it was 32-bit, and at times problematic.
 
I finally made the decision to get a permanent 64-bit replacement for it, and I bought a collection of a bunch of synths that were on sale, which included a GREAT 64-bit Minimoog synth.
 
The above allowed me to completely finish switching to all 64-bit 3rd-party plugins, so I never have to deal with any non-Cakewalk BitBridge issues.  I am stable, have equivalent sounds and am a happy camper, as a result of moving away from something that had been problematic.
 
Whether or not they ever release a 64-bit version of that plugin that works within 64-bit Sonar, I would encourage you to look for a different equivalent plugin - to insulate you in the event that one plugin for whatever reason doesn't work or get created.

Raymond, have you downloaded Altiverb 7 yet.
After you do that, can you come back and report how it works, and how it sounds.
Thanks.

Not yet. Tomorrow. Right now I have a short break.Trying to make to Solo Violin of VSL sound like a Stradivarius.....(haha).
 
Thank you for telling about AV 7.

Today I re-installed X3e. Also purchased Altiverb 7 and downloaded it. Installed it also. But I have to wait until the package arrives with the new iLok2. With the older version of iLok Alitverb won't work. If only I had this noticed before, now I have to transfer all licenses from one iLok to the other (later this coming week). Until then.... no answer concerning the stuttering problem.
 
Being patient,

Now THAT sucks - wait wait wait wait....
 
I just went through the same violin solo sound search myself, using Kontakt.  O am working up a midi version of a Dixie Dregs tune, called Night Meets Light, and there is a TON of solo violin throughout the song, including a violin solo.
 
Most of my strings presets are for sections, violin section, cello section, etc..
 
I found a reasonable sound with the original Kontakt factory sounds library, Solo Violin, and at first was driven crazy by not having any means of controlling vibrato.  Lots of other articulations with the bowing, and all of that, but not for vibrato.
 
THEN, I discovered that the amount of vibrato present seems to depend on the velocity of the notes - the samples loaded when a note has a velocity of 100 have far less vibrato than the samples loaded when the velocity is 115.
 
So, for whatever the worth, if you are having trouble with vibrato, try adjusting the velocity and see if that works the same.  :)
 
You apparently have some time, wait wait wait wait wait.....
