Single: Prev/Next Patch Buttons
The button with the left-pointing arrow selects the previous patch in a patch list without having to open the
Load panel. The button with the right-pointing arrow selects the next patch in a patch list without having to
open the Load panel.
Single: Save/File Button
Click this button to open the Save/File options panel, which you use to name and save any new patches you
create in a channel. For detailed information about the various bank and patch saving options, see Chapter 11,
“Graphic UI - Saving and Managing Patches”.
CPU Gauge
The CPU Gauge shows you exactly how much of Receptor’s available computing power you’ve used. The more
instrument and effect plugins you use (or the more MIDI notes you play simultaneously), the more computing
power (CPU) you use.
Multi Patch Slot Anatomy
These parameters are essentially the same as those accessed from the MULTI button on Receptor’s front panel.
Multi patches store an entire Mixer setup, including all Source and FX assignments, patch data, mix parameters,
and numerous Setup parameters. They also store the patch data for each instantiated plugin, which means your
Multi patches never “lose their patch data” if you happen to change or delete a VST patch that was used in
creating a Multi patch.

Patch Selector
The Single Patch parameters are discussed in the following sections.
Multi: Bank Selector
Click the Bank Selector to open the Load Panel to its Bank List view. Banks are directories of individual Multi
patches stored in Receptor. The bank you select determines the list of patches that appear in the Load Panel’s
Patch List. Receptor stores up to 128 banks of Multi patches.
In general, select the desired bank from the Load Panel, then click the Load Panel’s Patch tab to select a patch to
load from within that bank. For detailed information about loading banks and patches, see Chapter 10, “Graphic
UI - Loading Patches”.
SHORTCUT: When the Load Panel is open, press CTL-TAB to switch back and forth between the Bank and
Patch tabs without using the mouse.
