Don't think so, it's a completely different interface technology. One use's Steinberg's VST and the other Microsoft's DirectX.

If ACT doesn't work properly with DXi (I haven't checked it yet) I'd use the Remote Control feature.

There wasn't one on the bit-bridged 32-bit effect I mention above, but the global ACT learn button (in the toolbar) still worked OK. Have you tried that to see if it works?

Don't confuse the 32bit VST issue with DXi. To access the ACT learn button on a BitBridged VST, hold the SHIFT key when opening the plug-in UI. The VST header with the ACT learn button will open in a second window usually behind the plug-in UI.

So, how about the 64-bit TTS-1 which I'm checking now? I tried the global ACT Learn button but it didn't work.

Ah, TTS-1 doesn't support ACT.

"SONAR has built-in mappings for all relatively recent SONAR plug-ins, however some older plug-ins such as the TTS-1 do not support ACT."

Or Cyclone or that Roland GrooveSynth. I don't have Project 5 installed on this machine but would not be surprised if the P5 synths lacked ACT support.

Another addition to the list of things I didn't know :-)

Does that show the other 'missing' buttons too, like solo, mute, read/write enable etc?

Cheers!

Yes, it does and a button to bring up the plug-in UI. The header is also dockable.
