After bridging, go into your DAW's plugin manager and mark the original 32-bit plugins as "hidden" or "unused" to avoid confusion. Only the bridged copies should be visible.

In blind A/B tests, bridged vs. native added approximately 0.5–1.5ms of additional PDC (Plugin Delay Compensation) overhead. For mixing, irrelevant. For live tracking with a bridged guitar amp sim? You'll feel it. Use native for live.

jBridge is not beautiful. It has no flashy marketing. But it is the quiet workhorse that keeps old studios running and rescues beloved sounds from obsolescence. If you make music on Windows, just buy it. You'll thank yourself the first time a 32-bit plugin crashes and your DAW stays alive.
