#566260 - 11/25/19 08:37 AM [PowerTracks Pro Audio] VST3 without jbridge?
Registered: 08/20/05 Posts: 92 FlaMusician Enthusiast Registered: 08/20/05 Posts: 92	I'm running Power Tracks 2019 with the #2 update. In my C:\program files\common files\VTS3\celemony\mellodyne location I have the 64 bit VST3 file called Mellodyne.vst3. Now that PG Music programs are 64 bit, do I still need jbridge to use this plug-in?

So, if you are running PowerTracks (which is a 32-bit application), you would need to load the VST2 version of Melodyne or load the VST2 version of the plugin (which could be 64-bit, as long as you are running jBridge). That being said, Melodyne does not run very well with Melodyne, because its architecture and Powertracks architecture don't speak well to each other (Melodyne isn't a traditional effects plugin that processes in RealTime). What I do is export my WAV file and process it using the standalone version of Melodyne, then bring the updated track back into the mix. _________________________ John LaptopBeast HP Win10Pro64 8GB AudioBeast ASUS Win10Pro64 16GB VideoBeast HP Win10Pro64 8GB BB-RB2020/UMC404HD/Casio Kbds/Cakewalk/Reaper/Studio One/Samplitude/MixBus/Notion/Finale/Noteworthy/NIKomplete/Halion/Garritan/IK http://www.sus4chord.com

I don't know if the 32 bit Melodyne is included in every download since the download is customized to your computer and edition. There could be a flag you can set during the download process, I just don't know. I do know JFord's earlier answer is correct. The VST3 standard does not allow a VST3 to operate in a 32 bit program, with or without a bridging application. However the VST standard is not limited in this manner and will work with an application like jBridge. The easiest solution is to use the standalone application. _________________________ Jim Fogle - 2020 BiaB (734) RB (Build 5) Ultra+ PAK Cakewalk - Zoom MRS-8 recorder Desktop: i7 Win 10 build 2004, 12GB ram 256GB SSD, 4 TB HDD Laptop: i3 64bit Win 10 build 2004, 8GB ram 500GB HDD Music at: http://fogle622.wix.com/fogle622-audio-home

That seems to tells me it isn't designed for VST3. _________________________ John LaptopBeast HP Win10Pro64 8GB AudioBeast ASUS Win10Pro64 16GB VideoBeast HP Win10Pro64 8GB BB-RB2020/UMC404HD/Casio Kbds/Cakewalk/Reaper/Studio One/Samplitude/MixBus/Notion/Finale/Noteworthy/NIKomplete/Halion/Garritan/IK http://www.sus4chord.com

Upgrading to Band-in-a-Box® 2020 is Easy!

Did you know... anyone who has owned a previous version of Band-in-a-Box® is entitle to upgrade pricing - you do not need to have your old version installed!

Maybe you used to own the Windows version, but you now have a Mac... that's not a problem either!
(or if you owned the Mac version, and now you have a Windows computer)

In both cases, you would purchase from the "Upgrade from 2018 or earlier or crossgrade" row here for a new Mac version, or here if you want the newest Windows version. Just need to upgrade your 2019 version? Use the "Upgrade from 2019/2020" row.

When you purchase your upgrade from either of these rows, you will receive a complete installation - just follow the steps of the setup, and your Band-in-a-Box® will be ready to use!

PG Music Inc. shopping cart accounts were not required to purchase from our website prior to October 29, 2014. With that in mind, you may have to create an account in order to upgrade - that's OK! You'll still be entitled to upgrade pricing.
