Exploring the GUI: Tags/Presets List Area ("SoundFinder")

List

On the left hand side of the screen you'll see a column with the heading Tags/Presets. This is the

GUI's representation of the front panel SOUNDFINDER feature, and works the same way - select

a Tag (by clicking on the little triangle) and load a preset (by clicking on it). Only difference is that

here you sell ALL the Tags at once!

Exploring the GUI: The Tag Filter

You can have a lot of Tags in RECEPTOR, so we make it easy to focus on just the Tags of interest by

providing the TAG filter. You can open the Tag filter by clicking on the small Tag symbol (it looks like

a price tag) to the right of the TAG / PRESETS header bar. When you click on the button, the TAG

Filter will open to the right of the button:

The Tag Filter is really easy to use. Simply click on the terms that are descriptive of the type of

sound or effect that you are looking for. For example, if you are interested in all of the Basses

located across all the Tags in your RECEPTOR, click on "BASS". The SoundFinder area now displays

all of the presets (regardless of the particular Tag in which they preside) that are associated with

the term "Bass".

Let's narrow our search a bit more. Let's look for only Bass sounds that are created with Synths.

For this, we simply add the word "Synth" to the Tag Filter and now the SoundFinder window shows

all the presets associated with "Synth + Bass". To clear the search parameters, simply click on

the "See All" button at the top and you'll once again see all the Tags to the left in the SoundFinder

window.

Being able to combine search terms together gives you get another powerful tool in RECEPTOR by

which to organize, manage, and choose your sounds and effects.
