MULTI: Patch

If you want to select a patch from the current bank, rotate the top display knob to select the Patch parameter. If
you want to select a patch from a different bank, it will be fastest to use the Bank parameter discussed above.

Rotate the bottom display knob to select the patch you wish to load. The patch name is flashing, indicating you
must press the bottom display knob to actually load the selected patch.
If you’re currently viewing the last patch in a bank, and you turn the bottom display knob another notch
clockwise, Receptor will automatically switch to the next bank and display the first patch within that bank. The
same is true if you’re viewing the first patch in a bank and turn the bottom display knob counter-clockwise.
Essentially, you can scroll through every Multi patch without using the Bank parameter at all! However, if you
have 16,000 Multi patches, we’re quite certain that you’ll want to make use of the Bank parameter.
NOTE 1: Because Multi patches require Receptor to instantiate numerous plugins as well as load each plugin
with the correct parameters, you may experience a bit of a wait -- particularly if some plugins must load
samples from hard disk, or are particularly complex.
NOTE 2: ROM patch names are enclosed in angle brackets, like <this>. When you see a patch name enclosed
in <angle brackets>, it means the patch is a “factory” patch and cannot be overwritten or deleted. For more
information, see “ROM Banks and RAM Banks” on page 127.
NOTE 3: If you have edited a patch in any way, an asterisk (*) replaces the colon (:) between the patch number
and name. When you see an asterisk between the patch number and name, you’ll know that the version currently
in the edit buffer is not what’s saved to disk.

If you want to save your patch, press the SAVE /FILE button to save your edits (as described in “SAVE/FILE
Button” on page 75).

Patch Prefixes

If a Multi patch name appears with a [!!] prefix, it means that the Multi 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 scroll through the various 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

[--] before a plugin name 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

[??] before the plugin indicates an error, most likely that the iLok is not inserted properly.
