2021 BIAB and RB seem to be having more trouble than ever before for a new launch.

i'm not upgrading for a while but one bug report worries me - jbridge not seeming to work for bridging 32 bit plugins to the new 64 bit RB

i'm fond of some of my old plugins so would hate to lose them. so far 64 bit plugins just worked with 32 bit RB

I just tested Jbridge with Realband64 and wasn't able to duplicate any issue with it not working. From what I'm seeing, as long as I run it with Administrator privileges like JBridge always says to do, then it seems to be working as expected. It says my version is v1.7b3.

Works here.
You may be confusing the fact that JBridge does not work for 32 bit DXi items.
Thus Coyote Forte does not work in RB64.

That said I have encountered a weird issue (one machine specifically) with Jbridge popping up a notice that I have a JBridge version mismatch; somehow the version I am running doesn't match something in the system, but it still works fine after dismissing the warning.

I've let development know, but since it still works it's probably low on the priority list.
Below image shows 32 bit Parmeter running in RB64 showing JBridge in the lower left.

I also upgraded to 1.75d and it even seemed to work when not running RealBand64 with Administrator privileges, although I don't know what would occur if adding a new plugin to the list of VSTs when not running RealBand64.exe with administrator privileges.

With 1.75d you didn't get the mismatch warning?
If I ignore it, RB works fine, just annoying ..

I would probably request the latest version from the jBridge website, then run Revo Uninstaller (because it goes deeper than a simple uninstall), then reinstall to see if the error message goes away.

I emailed J, far as I know that was the latest version a few months ago .. when I built this new system.
Didn't (still don't) get this message in RB32 .. it's new with RB64.
But again, it works fine, it's just an annoying popup.

I have jbridge 1.75 no d........so far i've not had to do anything at all to run 64 bit plugins in RB or 32 bit plugins in BIAB 64 bit. neither of them running with admin privileges - something i've never had to do as i've never had the problems that is supposed to solve so i'll try to run plugins as i ahve always done - just letting jbridge do its thing

one other query though, jford says i'll have to reinstall all my plugins for RB 2021 64 bit as they don't carry over. is there a quick way without adding them all again?

and if i want to update jbridge how do i do it? i bought it off PG Music in 2018 not direct from the developer so is my registered email known to him?

yes it is............jsut got the 1.75d upgrade

I don't think that's what John said or meant I'm fairly certain he was referencing only JBridge itself not all your plugins.

that would be great if all my plugins carry over to RB 2021. can john confirm that is the case? i've never used jbridge to bridge plugins - they always 'just worked'.

Larry (and Bob) -

Sorry it took so long to get back to this thread.

What I meant (and I think it was a different thread discussion with Bob) was that your list of available VST/VSTi plugins from the 32-bit version do not auto-populate into the 64-bit version when you install it (in the same folder). I believe there are text files created that reference them, so I guess it's possible to rename them, but not sure if that's all there is to it.

When I launch the 32-bit RealBand, it's 2020 (Build 5) from the previous 2020 installation and in the image below, it shows 2 VST plugins available.

After installing RealBand 2021 (64-bit) to the same folder as the previous RealBand, it only picks up existing 64-bit DXi synths from the registry; however, the previous VSTi synths (whether 32-bit or 64-bit bridged) are not present.

So, you have to add them all back in before opening existing projects, because RealBand doesn"t tell you that it can't find a plugin your project needs - it just assigns it to whatever port was used, whether there is a plugin there or not.

thanks John - a pain but easy enough. i took a screen shot of my RB 32 bit plugin window so i'll repopulate the 64 bit version

just reread your post - it deals with vst synths - what about simple vst plugins like reverb etc?

Same should apply, but BIAB does differentiate (it gives you a different list for plugins vs synths.

Bob,

You may have success by looking in your old RealBand folder and open a file labeled PluginScanLog.log. You can open a log file using Windows Notepad. RealBand64 has a similar file. You may be able to compare the two files and add the missing plugins just by copying from one file to the other.

I'd definitely make a back up of the files before messing with them.

thanks Jim, for the the minutes or so adding the vst plugins to RB 2021 it hardly seems worth it risking editing log files (if it can go wrong it will go wrong............!)
as i said earlier i took a screenshot of the plugins present in RB 2020 and as long as i can find them (they don't all live in the same place sadly) it shouldn't take long

Yea I was referencing this statement, not add/remove VSTi's in general, I was a post behind the question- my mistake

Even without a screenshot, the list Jim mentioned should be the same list.
Probably better, as you can copy/paste from it if you need to search for a plugin.

Just a thought; that was valuable info for many who may not think to screen shot it .. plus for me it would take 2 screen shots, as I have to scroll to see all the plugins. wink
