Using 32-bit Plug-ins with jBridgeM and Metaplugin -- crash?

Hi all,
I just switched from MainStage 2 to 3.1.1 because 2 kept crashing.
Since I use a couple of 32-bit plug-ins (VB3 and Dune), I had to get jBridgeM and Metaplugin.
Now I can crash MainStage in no time at all.
Does anyone have (positive) experience with using 32-bit plug-ins (or VSTs) with "wrappers" in MainStage 3?
Are people complaining LOUDLY to Apple about removal of the support for 32-bit components (and VSTs in the first place) in their "professional" music apps.
stp

Hi again,
To add to the above note, the tools I found are:
     jBridgeM - wraps 32-bit VSTs for 64-bit hosts
     VSTAU Manager - wraps VSTs as AUs
     Metaplugin - lets you plug VSTs into an AU host
Unfortunately, the workflow doesn't produce working plug-ins, and there's no 32-to-64-bit wrapper for AUs.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Are the other wrappers (e.g., FXpansion's) any more reliable?

Run in 64-bit mode when using 32 bit plug-ins?

I have noticed that when I open a project that uses Komplete 7 Elements, a 32-bit bridge utility loads and an error message indicating that the file could not be opened pops up. However, the file project does open. My question is this: Does using 32-bit plug-ins affect performance when Logic runs in 64-bit mode?

Hi,
Based on the error message, we should confirm whether Oracle client tool has been installed on the Report Server at the beginning. If the Report Server installed is 64-bit, we should also install a 64-bit Oracle client tool on the Report Server. Besides, we
can also try to bypass tnsnames.ora file when connecting to Oracle by specifying all the information in the data source instead of using the TNS alias to connect
to the Oracle database. Please see the sample below:
Data Source=(DESCRIPTION=(CID=GTU_APP)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST= server01.mydomain.com)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=OracleDB)(SERVER=DEDICATED)));

Hope this helps.

Can I use third paty plug-ins with Photos? If so, how?

Would really like to still use my NIK Software and topaz plug-ins...Am I still able to do this with photos? If so, how?

Thanks leonie...I would much rather pay the $$ for Aperture than use the free Photos program- it's a shame that Aperture development has ceased...not in love at all with Photos yet...maybe in time...

USING LOGIC'S PLUG INS WITH PROTOOLS

Does anything know if it's possible to use Logic Pro's plugins in Protools LE?
I like mixing in Protools but hate the plugins.. Logic's are so much better.

Why do you want to mix in Pro Tools if you have Logic Pro 7? I just want to know why would you do that?

Nik PLug-ins with Aperture

Greetings, This is for anyone using Nik Software plug-ins with Aperture. Is there a way to back out of adjustments once you've saved your work in the Nik editor? When using with Photoshop, the Nik adjustment will create a "layer". Deselecting the layer will allow you to essentially remove the adjustment. I don't see any way of doing that in Aperture. Am I missing it, or are you basically down the road with the adjustment once you make it?
Thanks.

Once you save in NIK, the adjustments are "baked in." There's no way to go back and remove them. What NIK does is save the TIFF file that Aperture creates and hands over to it, with the NIK adjustments. This won't affect the original RAW file.
You could always go back and send that same TIFF file to NIK an indefinite number of times. It wouldn't really be "non-destructive" but you can re-do or tweak any adjustments you want to tweak.

Need help using Waves 64bit, 3rd party plug-ins with Premiere CS5

I'm trying to install and use a bundle of 64bit 3rd party audio plug-ins from Waves in Premiere.
I am on a Mac running OS 10.9.3.
I can't figure out how to get Premiere CS5 to recognize my 3rd party Waves 9.3 bundle.
The plug-ins are listed and fly by one by one on the loading splash screen while Premiere launches. I can't find them anywhere in Premiere once it launches. Aparently both the VST and AU units work. But how? Where/how do I load the plug ins so I can access them in the audio effects folder?
thanks in advance!
Alex

i think the audio plugin manager was something new added, but i dont remember when. as im looking thru older threads at cs5, they make it sound as if premiere will just load and use what it can. when an effect doesn't show up, its usually cause premiere determined it couldn't use it. if you have the 64-bit version of premiere and 64-bit audio plugins, they should work, unless premiere has some issue with them. i think waves uses vst3 and AU (audio units)? while vst2 should work in cs5, im not sure if vst3 or au are supported until cs7. so im at a loss, unless someone else knows better. if you have access to audition, you can try to load them in there to use.

Will 32 bits plug-ins for AE CS5 and 64 bits plug-ins for AE CS4 work ?

Hi
I have a couple of queries on plug-ins. Basically they are the same query
a) Will 32 bits plug –ins like Magic Bullet, Twixtor, Trapcodes, Boris etc work proplerly with 64 bits Adobe AE CS5 ?
b) Inversely, will 64 bits versions of plug –ins like Magic Bullet, Twixtor, Trapcodes, Boris etc work proplerly with 32 bits Adobe AE CS4 ?
Both the above on 64 bits computers.
Thanks

No and no.
from "Plug-ins":
"Important: Because After Effects CS5 is a 64-bit application, only 64-bit plug-ins can run in After Effects CS5. Plug-ins created for previous, 32-bit versions of After Effects will not run in After Effects CS5. To inquire about availability of 64-bit versions of plug-ins, contact the plug-in vendor or provider."

You could just disable updates. Change these settings in about:config.
* app.update.auto - set to false
* app.update.enabled - set to false
You can still check for updates with the "Check for Updates" button in the About Firefox window, but it will download the update file anyway if there is an update available. You can also check which is the current release from here:

Is it possible to support Logic in 32-bit plug-ins in future updates? How about to make a bridge built in Logic. I would have long ago moved on to a new version of Logic, but I have the equipment (UAD-1 and Liquid Mix), which are not run on the Loqic X. So I would suggest to make a bridge in Logic X. As it was in version 9 of the Logic.

In addition.. Focusrite have stated they will not be releasing a 64bit version of Liquid Mix as they consider it outdated software these days.... even though at one point a limited release beta version had a 64bit AU version included but it was so unstable it was rapidly dropped...
However the 32bit to 64bit bridge plugin 32 Lives, states it will handle and 'convert' the Stereo version of Liquid Mix to 64bit but not the Mono version... within LPX
http://www.soundradix.com/products/32-lives/compatibility
Finally, like others here, I would be extremely surprised if Apple added 32bit AU support back into LPX.. That '32bit tech' is long dead and gone....in terms of modern DAWs... as it is in other DAWs such as the recent PT versions...

Build Plug-Ins with CS4 SDK under OS X 10.5 SDK with Xcode 3.1.2?

I have existing Photoshop Universal Binary Plug-ins built under OS X 10.4 and the OS X 10.4 SDK, with Xcode 2.1.x & Photoshop CS3 SDK. They are mature and stable.
I am attempting to build these Plug-Ins with the new CS4 SDK under OS X 10.5.6 & 10.5 SDK with Xcode 3.1.2.
They do not build as there is a conflict in PITypes.h with the attempted redefinition of uint32, already defined in the Apple header cssmconfig.h, amongst other problems.
Has anyone built with a similar configuration?
Thank you!

I've had good luck with Snow Leopard 10.6.1, XCode 3.2 and the Photoshop CS4 SDK by changing the build settings like this:
1. Open the Target Info window: Project->Edit Active Target
2. Change Architectures from native to 32-bit Universal (because my native is 64 bit)
3. Make sure Base SDK is 10.4 (you must have that installed of course). If you select 10.5 for some of the Photoshop examples, you get complaints of depreciated APIs.
4. Change C/C++ compiler version to GCC 4.0
In the case of using these steps, there is no need to edit any headers, comment anything out, etc.
Hope that helps!

Error Messages/Building Plug-ins with Eclipse SDK or VCExpress 2005

Hi,
I am an newbie in building InDesign-Plugins. I have installed the Adobe InDesign Plug-in Editor on my Windows XP PC (InDesign CS3 SDK, Eclipse, JRE 1.5, Visual Studio 2005 (VCExpress Edition for C++)).
I tried to build one of the example Plug-ins with Eclipse. After startting the build process of the "transparencyeffectui"-example or the "DollyXs"-example the following message appears:
Buildfile: F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\build.xml
win:
[echo] Now compiling FR file F:\adobe_indesign_cs3_products_sdk_503win\source\sdksamples\dollytest\Dolly.fr for win
[delete] Deleting: F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\ODFRC.res
[echo] FR Compilation Complete: Attempting to build C++ files...
BUILD FAILED
F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\build.xml:66: Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "D:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 5\Common7\IDE\devenv.com": CreateProcess error=2, Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden
Total time: 485 milliseconds
The compiler did't start because the file "devenv.com" is missing in the "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005/Common7/IDE"-directory.
The free "Visual Studio Express Edition" is delivered withot this file.
Where can i get this file? Or is it possible to change the exec line in the built-xml-file to get the Compiler started?
So I started the VCExpress-Programm an opened the transparencyeffetui-Project-File to start the build process. But again i got an error message:
1>------ Erstellen gestartet: Projekt: TransparencyEffectUI, Konfiguration: Debug Win32 ------
1>Performing Custom Build Step

1>Build log was saved at "file://f:\adobe_indesign_cs3_products_sdk_503win\build\win\objD\TransparencyEffectUI\Bui ldLog.htm"
1>TransparencyEffectUI - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Erstellen: 0 erfolgreich, Fehler bei 1, 0 aktuell, 0 übersprungen ==========
There is no "windows.h"-file in the SDK directory. I tried to include all available SDK-"inculde"-directories to the VC++ directories in the option menue in VCExpress but i got the same error message.
Any ideas how to get the plug-in build with Eclipse or Visual Studio Express 2005 (C++)?

OK, so first some background:
1) The basic process goes like this:
a) one release doc (edited by the developer, presumably) and the
template docs are copied to the build area
b) Each doc is unzipped (ODT's are just ZIP files) into a subdir
c) The doc contents are copied around; this is to allow Ant to
replace its special @VAR@ variables in the document content
d) The docs are zipped back up into ODTs
e) The ODTs are converted into PDFs using OOo's macro functionality
Here are the troubleshooting steps I would apply:
1) Make sure the external.odt file exists - check the build area
(//content/build/<pluginname>/tmp/) and can be opened using normal
OpenOffice
2) Check that the release.odt file exists (same location) and can be
opened using normal OpenOffice
3) See if you can manually convert the external.odt file into a PDF -
the command we use is simply:
soffice -invisible
macro:///Standard.Collectors.External2PDF(${pkgdir}/tmp/external.odt)
(replace ${pkgdir} with the build directory path).
If all that works, then the Ant build process should work.
Also - what does that OpenOffice error popup say?

Are CS5 64-bit plug-ins going to be fat binary so they can run in 32-bit CS4?
Is there any reason to upgrade CS5 plug-ins if a user is sticking with CS4?

How to check Exadata plug-ins are installed and running?

Hi ,
I have quarter rack Exadata set-up. I wanted to check whether i have Exadata plug-ins already installed and running or not ?
Is there any way to confirm this ? I can see grid control running on separate host and several other production dbs are registers with it for monitoring. But not sure whether Exadata db is registered to it or not ? I believe, i need to install agent and additional plug-ins to have it monitored via grid control.
Can i check that ? Is there any way ?
I am new to OEM and yet have not explored it.

I haven't worked with Exadata myself but the installed plug-ins should be visible under Setup (upper-right-corner of the Grid Control Home page), Management Plug-ins.
