But in general, using 32-bit plug-ins in an 64-bit environment can be problematic and cause various problems.Īs of now, you have various options to choose from to deal with this situation: Problem solved.Although 64-bit operating systems and hosts are the norm for years, you might need to use older plug-ins for backward compatibility or a particular VST Instrument which has been discontinued.ģ2-bit versions of Cubase 4 to Cubase 8.5 and Nuendo 4 to Nuendo 7 came with a VST Bridge meant to make the transition to 64-bit systems easier.
I was able to open Cubase again and went to vst 2x plug-in paths bit of the plugin information screen and added the bridged file folder. Unfortunately, Cubase crashed when trying to scan the bridged plugins folder and then wouldn’t start again so I deleted the bridged plugins folder and re-ran jbridge but this time I put the new bridged plugin files in their own folder in the steinberg folder on my C drive instead. It obviously couldn’t find the NI files I had removed so that was good.
I loaded cubase, opened plug-in information and set it to scan for plug-ins. I kept a copy of these on my sample drive in case something went wrong so I could retrace my steps. I then removed all of the NI files from my VST plugins folder so these wouldn’t be available for Cubase to use when it scans for plugins. I put the bridge files I created in their own folder inside the vst plugins folder on my C drive. I then created the bridge files from the Native instruments folder with all the. I also had to do the 3 steps mentioned here. Jbridge wouldn’t created bridge files at first so I had to turn off UAC (control panel> user accounts and family safety>user accounts>change user account control settings). Here’s my experience with installing and setting up Jbridge. Might just be bumping this thread but wanted to go through what I had to do to get jbridge running properly since it was a little difficult to set up and maybe I can make this thread useful to someone else who has this problem in the future. SOLVED -thanks for the help! Managed to have over 30 instances of Massive running and all the other plug-ins from the Komplete 6 range so I’m very happy! Jbridge is a fantastic fix and as others have said it’s a shame Steinberg haven’t sorted their own version or integrated it into their software.
I’m pretty confused and spent a lot of time over the past 4 days looking up how to sort this with little luck so I would be very grateful if anyone had any advice or input. VSTbridge sits around 5% cpu and cubase at <15%. Nothing in my task manager rises much with this issue. I noticed that when i tried deleting the database file (at C:Users/ Username/AppData/Local/Native Instruments/Massive) this relieved the issue temporarily before the whole thing failed again.
I don’t use cracked versions of any software and haven’t installed anything on this machine other than cubase, some drivers and Komplete 6 and its updates so it shouldn’t be anything malicious. Battery often crashes and creates a crashlog. Now I don’t get the vstbridge message as often but instead massive still produces sound and is responsive to changes but visually won’t show it’s dial positions moving at all making it near impossible to work with or save patches. It started with “connection with vstbridge lost” warnings. If i open NI vst’s in standalone mode they function as normal but not when inside cubase.
I have been using NI Komplete 6 64 bit vst’s in cubase 5.53 64bit. I had this pc built by inta audio last week so I have very few vsts installed currently and it was running cubase perfectly other than this. I’ve had some good advice back in the days of so thought it’d be worth a shot seeing if anyone knew what this problem is! I’ve been having trouble with my NI vst’s since I got a new pc recently.
