    I'm a slave to Geist but never tried Guru.

    Hope you get some positive replies.

    Indeed regarding Geist, now that's the one you should install, it's awesome. I just wish they would have continued to support it.

    yip used to have geist 2 installed,when i had to reinstall windows i didnt reinstall it yet
    just seen a tutorial and the guy was using guru,just fancied having a go on it.
    i do seem to torment myself unneccisarily a lot!
    in standalone mode it opens,but my problem there is i cant load any sounds
    for example along left i select kits,then in right i see acoustic dance,ethnic etc. i click on dance and then those categories acoustic dance,ethnic etc. move to left with nothing on right
    if i click on dance when its in right they all dissapear and only thing left in left pane is parent directory

    I use Guru jbridged in Ableton 11.
    Use it a lot more than Geist (version 1, never tried 2).

    PS: Still love Guru so much (one of my most used plugins ever).

    Unfortunately Cubase doesn't show many jbridged 32bit plugins, I have tried every single way no result.
    I recommend using something like CAT or similar .
    I personally use Ableton 11 with jbridge. It just works just fine, except old Vsti and early releases from early '00 .
    I don't like the fact that we can't use 32bit in 2025 DAW without any hustle! just because the developer want to !?,
    Kind of not fair.
