Hi,
When I installed Sonar X1 in Win XP x32 Sony's Wave Hammer DX plug-in shows up in the Audio FX list.  Now that I'm using Win 7 x64 it does not show up.   Sound Forge Pro 10.0c was installed in both instances.
 
Any idea what's going on?  Can I use Wave Hammer (x32) in Sonar X1 x64?
 
Thanks,
 
Sergio

you should be able to i think..as long as its bridged.it may be in the wrong folder..is it in program folders(86) ??..also try opening the plug in manager and making sure its file path is selected.and also chosen from the left column.

I don't know how to set the file path for DX effects.  I can set the file path option is for VST plug-in effects and not for DX.
Thanks,
Sergio

I just found this 10/1/2010 document (http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/kb/reader.aspx/2007013187) which states that 32-bit DirectX plug-ins are not supported in SONAR x64.  I don't know it it applies to X1.

But there is a handy little app that will "wrap" DX effects and make them into vsts. Search the forum for the link, but use at your own risk.

Thanks for all the info.  I'd like to keep everything 64bit, so I'll try to recreate Wave Hammer with Pro Channel.

I just checked my own list of plug ins, and I have all the Sony plugs except Wave Hammer.  Curiously, I have Wave Hammer Surround listed, but not the stereo version.  Still, it's basically just a brick wall limiter which can be achieved with a Sonitus Compressor set to a high ratio or Boost 11 if used judiciously.

True lynn,but I miss the sony Wave Hammer for it was easy to use and very clean sounding.

Other effects do the same thing.
