FX: Plugin
This parameter works in conjunction with the FX: View Plugin Type parameter described above. It lists
every plugin of the type you chose to view. If you chose “All” as the plugin type on the FX: View Plugin Type
page (the default choice), then the FX: Plugin parameter displays every available plugin for that channel.

Rotate the bottom display knob to select the desired effect plugin. Plugins are listed in alphabetical order. Some
plugins may have a 2-character prefix contained inside a square bracket. This prefix, described a bit later, does
not alter the display order of plugins. The plugin name flashes indicating you must press the bottom display
knob to actually load the selected plugin.
SHORTCUT: If you’ve chosen anything other than
All on the FX: View Plugin Type page, this plugin list will
not show every possible audio source built-in to Receptor. If you want to see all the plugins in this list, simply
turn the bottom display knob to the last choice, which is “View All Plugins” and press the bottom display knob.
This automatically sets the FX: View Plugin Type to
All without you having to select that page. Once you’ve
done this, all the FX plugins will appear alphabetically in this list.
Plugin Prefixes
Some plugins may have bracketed prefixes before their names. Here’s what they mean:
•
[##] - This means that a demo version of the plugin is currently installed and that, by instantiating it, you
will activate its demo period.
• [nn] - In this case, nn = some number, such as 17, or 03, or 11. This means that the plugin is currently
running in demo mode and this prefix shows you how many days remain in your demo period.
• [--] - This means that the installed plugin must be purchased in order to be instantiated. You will see this
symbol when a demo period has expired or if no demo is available for a particular plugin. Also, when you
turn on Receptor, your iLok is scanned for licenses after the unit starts up. Because of this, it’s possible that
plugins you have purchased will display the [--] prefix for the first couple of minutes. Don’t worry. Your
purchased premium plugins will still instantiate if selected. It just takes a couple of minutes for Receptor to
scan all the plugins and update their prefix display, which it does in the background so that Receptor will
start up as quickly as possible.
• [??] - This means that an error is preventing you from instantiating this plugin. In most cases, it appears
because the iLok is not inserted into Receptor properly.
• [XX] - This means that the plugin is no longer on Receptor’s hard drive. Obviously, this will only appear if
you have loaded a Single or Multi patch that references a plugin no longer on Receptor.
• No Prefix - If there is no prefix before a plugin name, that means it’s either a free plugin or a premium
plugin that you have purchased.
FX: 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.
