11: GUI - Saving and Managing Patches 138 Receptor Manual
Copying a Patch
You may sometimes wish to copy a patch to another location or bank. For example, you may have some patches
in one bank that should really be in a different bank, in which case the Copy feature is ideal.
To copy a patch:
1 In the Patch List, click the patch name you wish to copy.
2 Click Copy.
The Copy button lights and the Cancel button becomes available.
Additionally, a “from” field appears that shows the name of the patch you just selected, and a “to” field appears, which
will show the name of the patch you wish to copy to.
3 Using the Bank and Patch Lists, select the patch location you wish to copy to.
The OK button now becomes available.
4 Click the OK button to copy the patch to this location, or click Cancel to cancel the copy operation.
NOTE: Receptor always appends a “-C” suffix to the end of a copied patch. If you wish, you can rename the
patch using the Rename option discussed earlier.
Creating a New Bank
There will be times when you want to save a patch and there just aren’t any appropriate banks for saving it. For
example, you may be starting a new film project and want to create a new bank of patches named after the film.
Or, if you’re the untidy type, you may have just run out of empty patch locations within your existing banks and
need to create a new bank in which to store a patch.
To create a new bank:
1 Click the Bank tab.
2 Click New.
The New button lights, a Bank name field appears, and the Cancel and OK buttons become available. To the right of
the Name field, Receptor displays the MSB/LSB number that will be assigned to the new bank.
3 Type a new name into the Name field.
Receptor’s default name for a new bank is “Bank n”, where “n” represents the order number of the bank.
4 Click the OK button to create the bank, or click Cancel to cancel the creation of this bank.
In the Bank List, a new bank is inserted and highlighted.
NOTE: Banks are arranged by their MIDI Bank Select numbers (MSB & LSB). In general, when you create a
new bank, Receptor assigns the lowest available MSB/LSB pair to the bank. Consequently, new banks may not
always be created at the end of the current list of bank, but sometimes in the middle. Don’t worry: The bank
you’re creating will always be highlighted and the existing banks will always use their previously assigned
MSB/LSB Bank Select numbers (even though the display order appears to change).
