Saving the Presets You’ve Created
Any new preset you create, as well as any modifications to the factory presets can quickly be saved
from the front panel. Always be sure to save any changes you make as they are NOT retained
when you turn off the power!
To save a preset, simply PRESS and HOLD the EDIT button. You have the option to "save over"
an existing preset, or create a NEW one (labeled as USER-X, where X is the last saved user preset
number plus one). All saved presets will show up under the "USER" Tag.
Simply use the bottom knob to select the location you want to save, and then press the bottom
encoder to either create (if "new") or save (if writing over) the preset. Writing a preset takes a
moment, after which time it will say "Created" on the display. All naming is automatic, but if you
want to give them specific names you can do so using the Graphical User Interface.
If you change your mind and decide not to save the preset, simply hit the PLAY button to exit
the SAVE screen. Remember, presets can be renamed and re-tagged using the graphical User
Interface.
Verifying Your MIDI Connection:
What do you do if you have your keyboard connected and you think you should be hearing sound,
but you don't? Just follow these simple steps:
1. Verify your MIDI keyboard OUTPUT jack is connected to RECEPTOR VIP INPUT jack.
2. Make sure there is a synth PRESET selected in PLAY mode on RECEPTOR VIP.
3. Verify the master volume on the front of the unit is turned up.
4. Press the SETUP button to turn on the MIDI monitor. Play a note, and if it doesn't display on the
system, then your keyboard is not transmitting MIDI or it is improperly connected.
5. If MIDI data is displayed, make sure the MIX levels have not been turned down.
Selecting Presets at a Gig
When performing with RECEPTOR VIP, you'll most likely want to quickly move from preset to
preset on stage without having to touch the RECEPTOR VIP itself. This is easily accomplished either
by sending MIDI Program Change messages to RECEPTOR VIP from your MIDI keyboard, or by
connecting a standard momentary footswitch to the rear panel footswitch jack.
