bridge crashing, doesn't seem to function correctly

[nite ryder]

I updated live and serato to my rane ttm 57 mixer but it still crashes. It said on the update that I can run it in 64 bit instead of 32. Is this true? Or do I still have to boot up the computer in 32 bit. Does anyone use the bridge with success?

Head to the Serato forum and you'll get more feed back. Not really many bridge users on this board. They don't even have a sub forum (which is odd to me). There is such a high cost to get to use the bridge that many folks might not be able to us it. The way traktor is heading they might be the best way in the near future via smartmixing.

I have sl3 box and the live release and things are working pretty well. Still lots of things that it lacks for me. If all you really want to do is fire off clips in ableton over your set then it works well. If you want to use tons of vst's, effects, hardware synths, instruments, and serato things don't work as well. I have this dream of having a trio that could play and then a dj that could manipulate the entire set. Right now the bridge can't get there.

I have not seen a single bug fix for the bridge in a long time. Hopefully live 9 will bring the improvements to the bridge that are needed to make it relevant. If not then I'm afraid this is as good as it's goin get.
