To enter Learn mode, click the Learn Mode button in the Edit Bar. Receptor enters Learn mode and the Edit
Bar changes to look as follows:
Order
MIDI Control (NRPN) Assign Parameter Name
Learn Mode Button
--- Edit Bar in Learn Mode ---
As seen in the previous figure, Learn Mode’s Edit Bar is identical to the top line of a Faceless Mode parameter,
and contains the following elements:
•
Parameter Name - When you edit a parameter in the plugin’s graphical UI, the name of that parameter is
displayed in this field. By default, this displays the name of the parameter as provided by the VST plugin.
Note than not every plugin developer names all of their parameters. You can rename this parameter by
1) clicking it, 2) typing a new name, and 3) pressing the Enter/Return key. When a parameter has been
renamed, it is shown in italics and is automatically assigned to the front panel. Should you wish to return
to the original parameter name, then click the Parameter name button again, delete all the custom text, and
press Enter/Return.
• Assign button - Click this button to assign the parameter to Receptor’s front panel. Any parameter assigned
to Receptor’s front panel is also available for remote MIDI control. You can assign up to 128 parameters
per plugin to Receptor’s front panel.
• Order display and button - When you assign parameters to Receptor’s front panel, they’re assigned
sequentially. For example, if parameters 1-5 are already assigned and you click the Assign button for a
new parameter, it’s automatically assigned as parameter #6. To learn how to reorder the default numbering
assignments, see “Reordering Parameters” on page 115.
By default, the first four parameters are assigned to the four soft knobs on Receptor’s front panel. To learn
more about knob assignments, see “Knob Assignments” on page 116.
• MIDI Control display - Receptor automatically assigns a MIDI Non Registered Parameter Number
(NRPN) to the first 4096 parameters of any Source VSTi, or to the first 2048 parameters of any FX VST.
Use NRPN values to remotely control each associated parameter from an external hardware controller
or sequencer. The MIDI Control display shows the MIDI NRPN value required to modify each plugin
parameter. Each MIDI message takes on the following form:
Bn 63 mm Bn 62 ll
Where:
Bn = ‘B’ is the control change, ‘n’ is the MIDI channel (0-15)
63 = This tells Receptor that the next byte is the MSB of an NRPN
mm = This is the MSB of the NRPN
Bn = ‘B’ is the control change, ‘n’ is the MIDI channel (0-15)
62 = This tells Receptor that the next byte is the LSB of an NRPN
ll = This is the LSB of the NRPN
