Receptor Manual

SOURCE: Velocity Range

Rotate the top display knob to select the

Velocity Range

parameter. Use this parameter to limit the range of

MIDI velocity values to which the channel responds. The Velocity Range parameter is used to assign certain
instruments to limited velocity ranges. For example, you might have an instrument channel that contains a
plugin that plays a big cymbal crash sound. If you limit the velocity range of this channel to 120-127, then the
channel will play only when it receives MIDI velocity values of 120 or greater -- in other words, when you hit
your MIDI keyboard really hard, the crash cymbal will sound -- for all lower velocity values, the crash cymbal
will not sound.

The Velocity Range parameter actually contains two parameters: a From parameter (representing the lowest
velocity in the range) and a To parameter (representing the highest velocity in the range). Rotate the bottom
display knob to set the low velocity to the desired value (0-127), then press the bottom display knob to apply the
selection. The cursor moves under the To parameter. Rotate the bottom display knob to set the high velocity to
the desired value (0-127), then press the bottom display knob to apply the selection.
MIDI Input Shortcut: You can set velocity range values via a MIDI keyboard. Simply make sure the cursor is
under the velocity value you wish to change, then turn the bottom display knob. This puts Receptor into “listen”
mode. Play a note on your MIDI keyboard and Receptor will set the velocity value to match and stop listening.
If you want to set the velocity to a different value via MIDI, repeat the above procedure.

FX A, FX B, FX C Buttons

Each of Receptor’s 16 instrument channels, 2 effects bus channels, and 1 master channel contains a set of three
insert effects, labeled FX A, FX B, and FX C. Parameter selection is identical for all three effects on all 19
channels and is thus only defined once in this section.
This section discusses the parameters available when you press the FX A, FX B, or FX C buttons on Receptor.

FX: View Plugin Type

Rotate the bottom display knob to select what type of plugins you want to display in the FX: Plugin page. You
do not need to press the bottom display knob to apply your choice -- it happens automatically.
You can select the following View filters:

All - Select this option to display alphabetically every plugin on the FX: Plugin page.

<Developer Name> - Select the name of the plugin developer to display only those plugins made by that
particular developer on the FX: Plugin page. For example, if you chose “Ohmforce,” the FX: Plugin page
would show only Ohmforce plugins, such as Frohmage, Hematohm, Mobilohm, Ohmboyz, Predatohm, and
Quad Frohmage.

NOTE: Although this is the first FX parameter page, it is not actually the screen you “land on” when you press
the FX button. Pressing the FX button lands you on the Plugin parameter screen (described below).
