Installing fixer files and new plug-ins onto your system
Your RECEPTOR can have new software installed on it as new plug-ins become available. The most
popular plug-ins on the market are fully tested by Muse Research and then installer files are made
available to make it as easy as possible to install new software onto your system. These installer files,
also known as fixers, are available for download from the www.plugorama.com website, and then may be
installed on your RECEPTOR by connecting your computer to your RECEPTOR using the supplied Crossover
cable and installing the MuseTools software onto your computer. It's not as hard as it sounds, and there
are plenty of YouTube videos available if you want to see how it is done. However, if you want to read
about how it is done, just follow the instructions below:
1. If you haven't already done so, register your RECEPTOR on www.plugorama.com and create an
account. This is how you gain access to the various ".mrpk" installer and fixer files.
2. Install the MUSE TOOLS software that came with your RECEPTOR. This software lets you view the
RECEPTOR GUI on your computer and access the RECEPTOR's hard drive.
3. Download the file of interest from the Plugorama.com website to your computer.
Installing software "Fixers" involves the following steps:
Connect to your RECEPTOR using the Muse Tools software and open up the Hard Drive by clicking
on the "Hard Drive" on the Muse Tools interface.
Locate the folder on the RECEPTOR called "Drop Installers Here" and then drag and drop the
installer file (.mrpk) into the folder.
Go back to the RECEPTOR, click on "Install Fixer" in the Software Manager System tab page,
navigate to the Drop Installers Here folder, and then select the INSTALL button when the file is
found.
The Plug-ins Tab: Installing Plug-ins and their patches
If you have installed a fixer that includes plug-in software, you can now install that software by clicking
on the PLUGINS tab. This will open up a different window that lists all of the plug-ins that are installed
on your system, as well as giving you the opportunity to install plug-ins or their patches by pressing the
corresponding button on the bottom left.
The system will automatically scan for uniinstalled plug-ins, and if they are of a compatible file format and
have been placed in the proper folder, then the system will automatically install and attempt to validate
the plug-in for use. Note that not all plug-ins are compatible with RECEPTOR due to the fact that there
are literally thousands of different plug-ins on the market, and not all plug-ins are compatible with all
versions of hardware and operating system software that is on the market.
For more information about software installation, please visit www.plugorama.com, watch the you Tube
videos on software installation, or contact Muse Research technical support.
The Licenses Tab: Licensing new hardware and SW features
It is possible to add new features and hardware for use with your RECEPTOR as they become available.
Some of these features and options will require a software license to use them with your RECEPTOR. This
tab is where you can view the installed licenses, and enter new ones if required.
