Receptor Manual

Source: Edit Button / Gain Knob

Press this button to open an editor for the instrument you’ve selected in the Source selector. This causes
Receptor to switch to Edit View, which is detailed in “Chapter 8: Graphic UI - Edit View”.
If you select the Rear Analog Input as the source, then the EDIT button is replaced with a Gain knob. Use the
Gain knob to boost the rear analog input level by as much as 18 dB. You can monitor the effect on the input
level using the tri-colored Output Level LED (discussed in the next section). In general, you should set the gain
so that high-level signals just barely light the red LED, then back off the gain slightly so the red light doesn’t
light.

Source: Output Level

This tri-color LED indicates the signal level coming out of the Source module. In the case of an audio input,
that also means it’s the level of your dry audio input signal.

Red - 0dB

Yellow - From -9dB to 0dB

Green - From -40dB to -9 dB

Source: Save/File Button

Click this button to open a pop-up Save/File options panel, which you use to save or modify any new
Instrument patches you create. For detailed information about the various bank and patch saving options, see
Chapter 11, “Graphic UI - Saving and Managing Patches”.

FX Slot Anatomy

These parameters are nearly the same as those accessed from the FX A, FX B, or FX C buttons on Receptor’s
front panel (as discussed in “FX A, FX B, FX C Buttons” on page 51).

Each of Receptor’s 16 instrument channels, 2 effects bus channels, and 1 master channel contains a set of three
insert effects, labeled FX A, FX B, and FX C. Parameter selection is identical for all three effects on all 19
channels.

FX: Plugin Selector

Click the top selector to open a pop-up panel of all VST effect plugins. Select the desired plugin from the panel.
The plugin will be instantiated and the Plugin Select panel will close.
If you wish to limit the number of plugins in the list, you can view only those plugins of a particular type.
Click the “View plugin type” menu to select whether you want to see all available plugins, or just those from
a particular developer. If more than 128 plugins are currently available, then NEXT PAGE and PREVIOUS
PAGE icons will appear at the bottom of the Plugin Select panel. Use these to view the next or previous set of
128 plugins.
