Single Patch Slot Anatomy
These parameters are essentially the same as those accessed from the SINGLE button on Receptor’s front panel.
Single patches store the Source assignment, Insert FX assignments and routings for an Instrument Channel.
They also store the patch data for each instantiated plugin, which means your Single patches never “lose their
patch data” if you happen to change or delete a VST patch that was used in creating a Single patch.

The Single Patch parameters are discussed in the following sections.
Single: Bank Selector
Click the Bank Selector to open the Load Panel to its Bank List view. Banks are directories of individual single
patches stored in Receptor. The bank you select determines the list of patches that appear in the Load Panel’s
Patch List. Receptor stores up to 128 banks of Single patches.
In general, select the desired bank from the Load Panel, then click the Load Panel’s Patch tab to select a patch to
load from within that bank. For detailed information about loading banks and patches, see Chapter 10, “Graphic
UI - Loading Patches”.
SHORTCUT: When the Load Panel is open, press CTL-TAB to switch back and forth between the Bank and
Patch tabs without using the mouse.
Single: Patch Selector
Click the Patch selector to open the Load Panel to its Patch List view. The Patch List contains the names and
numbers of all 128 patches stored within the current bank.
In general, select the desired patch from the Patch List and close the Load Panel when you’re finished. For
detailed information about loading banks and patches, see Chapter 10, “Graphic UI - Loading Patches”.
The patch selector shows the name of the current patch. If a patch has been modified from the version stored on
disk, its name is italicized.
NOTE: If a patch name appears with a [!!] prefix, it means that the patch is referencing one or more plugins
that cannot be instantiated. Possible reasons for this include:
•
You have removed a plugin required by that patch
• That patch was created with a demo plugin that is now expired
• The patch may be referencing an iLok-protected plugin and the iLok may not be inserted properly.
You can check the Source and FX plugin assignments to look for the problem. It will be easy to spot, since the
questionable plugin(s) will have a prefix before their name that indicates what the problem might be. That is,
[XX] before a plugin name means that it’s no longer on Receptor’s hard drive; if you see [--] before a plugin
name, it means it’s a premium plugin that you must purchase (perhaps because a demo period expired); [##]
before a plugin name means the plugin has not yet had its demo period activated, and [??] before the plugin
indicates an error, most likely that the iLok is not inserted properly.
