Since jbridge is a different bridge you get benefits on version 9.5 through 10.3

I advise you to check the jBridge before the buying. I was also hoping that it would solve my problem to use 32bit plugins in Reason. I've tried it and found that this is not reliable solution for plugins I wanted to use. There were various instabilities, like GUI lagging, dropouts, etc.

But maybe you are lucky and it is working for your specific plugins. How did you end up ?

BTW: It's really pity that today development strategy is to abandon everything old which doesn't fulfil the newest standards. There are a myriad of TOP QUALITY 32-bit plugins which are still very usable today. Many of them was short-term projects of various people like students, etc. so you can no longer use them in modern environment.

I've tried BlueCat Patchwork https://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/P ... PatchWork/
seemed to work, price is pretty steep though

JBridge works great here, been using it with TC Powercore plugins (multi Access Virus.. nom nom :D )

Works well with LiquidMix 32 as well (you need to do some Win10 unsigned legacy firewire driver install to get it to speak correctly).

Also handy for when using with Cubase 9.5 and 10 (since they dropped 32bit as well)

Dusan,

JBridge has a huge option panel that allows you to tweak a lot of things including Gui behavior. There were some gui Glitches in my jbridge instalation that got solved by setting the gui refresh rate and other stuff that i don't remember. Its the sort of thing you do once and let it be.

Anyway, for Virtual Guitarrist and Pod Farm, it is great to be able to use them.

It's worked for me with all the plugins I have tried with it, including ones built with SynthEdit. The one option I always have selected is to force the GUI to refresh (can't remember the exact name), otherwise when you reopen the plugin's GUI it will be broken.

JBridge works just fine for me too, in R10 and in some other DAW's (for synthedit etc 32bit plugs, and for some 64bit heavy plugs for reduce cpu usage)
