Max for live + Jbridge = Crash. Anyone else?

[ddashfens]

Quick question to anyone familiar with this scenario... I recently upgraded to the 64bit version of Live to unlock my RAM as I find myself using more Kontakt libraries. However, I was/am a big fan of the OPX-II pro which was created within synthedit and therefore has no 64bit version available. So as a workaround, I am using the latest version of Jbridge to run it along side the rest of my 64 bit plugins. I am also using the recommended Jbridge settings with the OPX-II, as it seems there were a few GUI crashing errors. I have run it successfully after these Jbridge settings were applied.

The problem now is trying to run Max for Live in a project with JBridge.

I have noticed a few things (in chronological order):

This happens on a project with more than 5 tracks of 64bit plugins running alongside a single 'jbridged' plugin. I go to open (for example) the max for live LFO tool and it immediately brings up a dialogue window that ableton has crashed.

If i try to immediately reopen ableton, and reopen the project (saved prior to loading the max 4 live plugin) then add the max for live plugin again it crashes.

If i try reopening ableton, open a new session with a single blank midi channel, then load a max for live plugin into it, it also crashes.

Now I reboot and load up ableton again. I open a new session with a single blank midi channel, then load a max for live plugin into it. It loads no problem.

Then I reload my previous project with more than 5 tracks of 64bit plugins running alongside a single 'jbridged' plugin. I load in the LFO tool and it loads no problem.

Now the next issue is that I save this project with the LFO tool within it.

I reboot the computer, load up ableton and straight away reload the project with the LFO tool in it. Before finishing to load it crashes, with the same dialogue box as my first examples.

It seems to me this is tied into the jbridge being executed before max for live.

I've searched for answers everywhere online and have found no solutions.

Is anyone else having this problem? Ideas?

Please and thank you

I`ve never got a problem with Jbridge, but maybe you should reinstall the VSTi
and Rebridge it.

If that not works maybe it is a problem within MAX.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I've tried that. Even a complete OS wipe and reinstall from the ground up. No luck. Jbridge works perfectly in Ableton as long as I'm not running any Max for Live devices...

I tried different Pitch Black & J74 M4L-devices in Combo with Jbridge,
also a Midimapper and do not run into this under Win 7 64, Live 9 Suite.

Interesting. I'm using JP6K and OPX-pro II. I will have to test further combinations of other vsti with Max for live and jbridge.
