Setup: MIDI settings

RECEPTOR TRIO and QU4TTRO lets you change some of the MIDI characteristics of your RECEPTOR by

selecting the MIDI SETUP menu in the main SETUP menu.

The MIDI SETUP menu lets you set the internal MIDI clock rate which will provide tempo information to

any synth or effect that uses MIDI clock to set tempos for things like LFOs, delays, and drum patterns. It

also lets you set the tempo source to either be Internal (self-generated and set by the tempo setting) or

External (synchronized to the incoming MIDI clock, if there is one).

Finally, the MIDI SETUP menu lets you change the numbering scheme for presets used in your RECEPTOR

TRIO and QU4TTRO. By selecting "Start at One" the first preset in any Tag or Bank will be preset #1. By

selecting "Start at Zero" the first preset in any Tag or Bank will be Preset #0. This lets you accommodate

different preset numbering convention used by different manufacturers.

Setup: MIDI Mixer Control

The MIDI MIXER CONTROL menu lets you select different parameters in the main rack area to respond

to MIDI controller and program change data. This is in ADDITION to all the learnable parameters on

the plug-in level. For example, in this screen you can assign a MIDI controller to control the volume or

panning of the system or a particular channel, select the next or previous preset or tag, or control various

send levels of assignable parameters.

This menu also lets you remove the ability of the unit to accept program changes (by unlearning the

Select presets within Tag parameter). As you add new synths and audio channels to the rack area, those

parameters become available to assign as well.

Setup: Network Settings

The Network Settings window allows you to configure your

RECEPTOR for connection to another computer directly (crossover

mode) or via a local area network (automatic mode).

Automatic mode lets your RECEPTOR update its software assuning

the computer network has access to the Internet. Either mode

lets you use the Muse Tools software to view the GUI on your

RECEPTOR.

In Automatic mode, it is assumed that your RECEPTOR is connected

to a computer network that has a device like a cable or DSL modem

with router functionality to supply it with a network address. This

is

also the mode to connect your RECEPTOR to a WiFi router for

viewing the GUI using a mobile device.

Crossover mode lets you connect your RECEPTOR directly to your computer with nothing in-between

except a crossover cable (supplied). In this mode, the assumption is that you will be using the computer

primarily to view the GUI using the Muse Tools program.

This window also provides you with your Network Status so you can verify whether your network is

properly configured. Proper status is indicated by the Status message "READY" and a network address

listed below that.
