Receptor Manual

SOURCE: Bank

In order to conform with MIDI standards, patches are stored together in a group, which is called a ‘bank.’ Each
bank can hold up to 128 patches. Receptor can store over 16,000 banks of VST patches (for a maximum of over
2,000,000 VST patches). To select a patch from a particular bank, you must first select the bank, then the actual
patch.
To select a bank and load a patch from that bank:

1

Rotate the top display knob to select the Bank parameter.

2 Rotate the bottom display knob to select the bank you wish to load.

The bank name is flashing

3 Press the bottom display knob.

Receptor shows you the first patch in that bank.

Rotate the bottom display knob to select a patch. The patch name will flash.

Press the bottom display knob to load that patch into Receptor.

NOTE 1: You cannot select a bank without also selecting a patch, since a Bank is nothing more than a directory
of patches.
NOTE 2: ROM bank names are enclosed in angle brackets, like <this>. When you see a bank name enclosed
in <angle brackets>, it means the bank is a “factory” bank and cannot be overwritten or deleted. For more
information, see “ROM Banks and RAM Banks” on page 127.

SOURCE: 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 patch without using the Bank parameter at all! However, with over 2
million patch locations available, we’re quite certain that you’ll want to make use of the Bank parameter.
NOTE 1: Patches for some plugins, particularly those that must load samples from hard disk, may take longer
to load than others (such as simple algorithmic effect or synth patches).
NOTE 2: The Patch parameter does not appear if you select an audio input source for the Plugin parameter.
NOTE 3: 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.
