Channel Status Numbering Guide

Are you wondering why, in the previous example, we know that channel 11 has plugins instantiated when the
display shows a letter “A”? That’s because double digit characters greater than 10 are represented by letters.
Specifically, here is how Receptor’s 19 mixer channels are represented, from left-to-right:

1-9 = Instrument Channels 1-9

0 = Ch 10

A = Ch 11, B = Ch 12, C = Ch 13, D = Ch 14, E = Ch 15, F = Ch 16

The “1” and “2” to the right of channel 16 (“F”) indicate the status of Effects Bus 1 and Effects Bus 2.

The capital “M”, on the far right, indicates the Master channel.

SETUP: MIDI Monitor

Rotate the top display knob to select the

MIDI Monitor

screen. This screen shows you, at a glance, which

MIDI channels are currently receiving some type of MIDI message.

If signal is detected on an incoming MIDI channel, the display will show the channel’s number. If no signal
is detected on an incoming MIDI channel, the display will show a dot. This is a quick and convenient way to
troubleshoot your studio, as it allows you to verify whether or not MIDI is reaching Receptor, and on which
MIDI channel.
MIDI channel numbering appears in this view as follows:

1-9 = Instrument Channels 1-9

0 = Ch 10

A = Ch 11, B = Ch 12, C = Ch 13, D = Ch 14, E = Ch 15, F = Ch 16

R = Real-time (unchannelized MIDI messages)

For example, the sample display shown above tells you that MIDI data is currently being received on channels
1, 2, 9, 10, 12 and 16. The presence of the letter “R” also tells you that unchannelized real-time messages are
being sent to Receptor.

SETUP: Master Transpose

Rotate the top display knob to select the

Master Transpose

parameter.

Rotate the bottom display knob to transpose the MIDI note numbers by plus or minus 12 semitones. The
selection flashes indicating you must press the bottom display knob to apply the change. The Master Transpose
setting is saved with a Multi patch.
