FX: Edit Button
Press this button to open an editor for the instrument you’ve selected in the Plugin selector. This causes
Receptor to switch to Edit View, which is detailed in Chapter 8, “Graphic UI - Edit View.”
FX: Save/File Button
Click this button to open a pop-up Save/File options panel, which you use to save or modify any new effects
patches you create. For detailed information about the various bank and patch saving options, see Chapter 11,
“Graphic UI - Saving and Managing Patches”.
FX Routing
This is the same parameter as the Route parameter accessed from Receptor’s front panel FX A, FX B, or FX C
buttons. Click one of the four buttons to choose how Receptor routes the three insert effects. There are four
options:
• The button shown above is the default routing -- a series connection in which the output of FX A feeds the
input of FX B, whose output feeds the input of FX C. It’s the routing used by nearly every mixing console
and is the most familiar to musicians. If an effect is unassigned, it is simply short-circuited.
• The button shown above is a parallel routing, in which FX A, B, and C receive dry feeds and process them
independently. This can drastically alter the sound of the effects chain. Note that, unlike a series connection,
unassigned parallel effects are open-circuited so they do not pass unfiltered signal to the output of the chain.
• The button shown above is a combination series/parallel routing in which the signal is split before being
sent to FX A and FX B. The output of FX B runs into the input of FX C, and the output of FX C is then
combined with FX A. Again, this can substantially alter the sound of the effects chain.
