Receptor Manual

In the pre fader position (the button is on and purple in color) the Send Level and Volume level act
independently. This is useful if, for example, you wish to hear only an effected signal with no dry signal, which
you would accomplish by turning on the Pre Fader button and setting the Volume level to zero.
NOTE: Since Send Levels are not present in the Effects Bus channels or the Master channel, neither are the
Pre/Post buttons.

Pan/Balance

Slide the Pan/Balance fader left and right to position the Instrument in the stereo field. Control-click the fader to
reset it to the default center position.
All Receptor channels are stereo so, if an instantiated plugin is actually mono, Receptor will double the signal
such that the left and right channels are identical. In the case of mono plugins, this parameter works like a
traditional pan control. In the case of stereo plugins, it acts as a balance control.

Mute

Below the Pan fader is the Mute button (as indicated by the “M”). Click the Mute button to disable a channel’s
output. Muted channels are also indicated in the Meter Bridge. Plugins on a muted channel are still active and
using CPU resources. Use the Bypass button if you want to mute a plugin (or channel) and also free up CPU
resources.
NOTE: Mute and Solo buttons are not present in the Master channel.

Solo

To the right of the Mute button is the Solo button (as indicated by the “S”). Click the Solo button to hear only
this (and any other soloed) channels. Soloing a channel automatically mutes all channels that aren’t currently
soloed, allowing you to isolate specific channels for editing.
NOTE: Mute and Solo buttons are not present in the Master channel.

Volume

The big fader is, of course, the Instrument Channel’s Volume fader. Use it to adjust the overall volume level of
the instrument. Control-click the fader to reset it to its default, nominal level.

Output Assignment Selector

Click the button labelled “Output” to open the Output Assignments panel.
