Interesting. If this product becomes a success, I won’t have to make my own bit-bridge implementation when I start working on a Podium x64 version.

It certainly does the job for most instances when it works. The major downside is it uses seperate processes (obviously really) and so they don’t integrate quite as well by default.

I haven’t tried the cantabile implementation, but ideally Podium could integrate to the extent that when an unsupported dll (32 or 64 bit either way) was selected, it would automatically launch the jbridge version and also keep track of the new process so that it could control the outside process window in place of the normal VST window.

This would make it pretty much seamless and remove the last quirk.

It does seem to work very well though, and hopefully it will allow me to use the current podium with my 64bit VSTs.

Of course, it also means that any 32bit VSTs, if launched this way, have access to their own memory and process space, so that those of us with a lot more memory can utilise it a bit better.

I registered a copy as soon as I saw it, as it really solves a problem.
