Or you could try installing a "hackintosh" on your PC :D this works pretty well

This is a great initiative. You might consering taking this one step further and add a x86 to x86 adaptor so that each plugin runs in its own process context. This way you can increase stability of the plugin host without having to move away from the VST plugin standard. I'm sorry to have no resources for testing this but in case you run in any problems I will be glad to do a code review for you. I am well trained to spot bugs in C and C++ easily in particular bugs related to synchronization that you need for your shared buffer management.

johncarter: As I said, unlikely to happen. :( It's a lot of new stuff to learn and not enough time to do so.

Resplendence: it does x86 to x86 too already. ;) Thanks for the help offer.

Hi! :)

I am preparing a new utility that will be included in the next version, which will take care of the file preparation automatically, making it all much more easier, I invite you to test it:

(update: now included with the latest version)

Thanks.

Seems to do the job :D

A nice enhancement would be allowing multiple VST paths to be selected - I know you can run it several times, with the same destination directory, but I'm not sure how it would cope with duplicates then - I assume an overwrite ?

Yes, it will overwrite any older bridging files, but that will cause no harm. :)

Just to let you know , the latest verison of the JBridge 0.98e causes East West PLAY to crash when it opens. :(

Hi!

Does it happen as well with the latest version (currently 0.99k)?

Thanks.

That seems to have fix the crashing.

Hey umd, great work!

When the bridge is ready, have you thought about selling it to the host developers instead of selling them to the people directly?

That way it would be implemented internally in the hosts and you'll save lot of work to the developers.
For the users that would be much better too, they won't even have to think "there's a bridge" if it's well implemented in the host.

I mean, something like... Elastique from zplane for example. Lots of hosts use it.

Post

Thanks.

It would be a cool thing, I guess. It only takes a couple of code lines to add direct support in a host for this, and doesn't break anything that's there already.

There's currently one host ( Cantabile ) that has direct support for this, and I've been having very good results with it.

I have a put an example of how to implement support for it here:

In FLStudio 8.5 beta4 and Windows XP32, if I try to load a pathc in SampleTank 2.x I get an error saying "Dispatcher opcode 8 failed." The audio from sampletank is then really garbled. After awhile it clears up for no apparent reason.

Try disabling the "use thread safety measures in auxhost" option.

This bridge is pure :-o :love:

Nice slap in some "smart" faces here....(eat this tony!)

this thing is great. I was able to load 8 gigs of samples across 2 instances of kontakt 3.5 beta running inside cubase 32 bit and it worked flawlessly. thanks for this awesome program!
