Receptor v1.5 Release Notes

Muse Research, Inc.

• With snapshots you can load sample data into a sampler on a bypassed channel and prepare it for later use

while you are playing another channel.
Assume, for example, that you are setting up a snapshot bank using channel bypass as described previously.

B4 is on CH 1, snapshot 1. Kompakt is on CH 2, snapshot 2. Kompakt is left in its default state, loading no

sample data. Now, load snapshot 1 so Kompakt is bypassed and you’re playing B4. While you are playing

use your MIDI sequencer or MIDI controller to send the appropriate bank and patch change number

directly to Kompakt. This program change will make Kompakt load its samples. When it is finished, change

to snapshot 2 and start playing Kompakt.
Note that you can find the correct bank and patch numbers with the Patch Dialog Box for Kompakt. Open

the dialog box and locate the bank you want. Look in the lower left for “Bank MSB/LSB”. Check the patch

list to get the program change number.
Send a MIDI bank change message using those values, and a MIDI patch change message using the patch

number. Both messages should go out on the midi channel number corresponding to where the plugin is in

the mixer; in this case use MIDI channel 2 because Kompakt is on mixer channel 2. That way the program

change number goes directly to Kompakt.
Consult your controllers owner’s manual for more information...

• If you want to make a copy of an entire Snapshot Bank, mount Receptor’s Hard Drive on your desktop

computer, then grab the entire folder from “Banks and Patches”, copy it to “Drop Installers Here”, then

click INSTALL. Receptor will import the Snapshot Bank using all the same plugins and mixer settings as

the original.

New Feature: Program Change Targeting

You can now, in Setup View, tell Receptor to ignore all incoming Bank Select (MSB/LSB) messages and, if

those messages are ignored, which patch bank receives the incoming Program Changes. These options are

grouped together under the new Program Changes parameter, shown below.

When you choose the Use Bank Select option, Receptor behaves as it always has — that is, it uses incoming

Bank Select messages (CC 00 and CC 32) to target which of Receptor’s 16,384 internal banks should respond to

the program change request.
When you choose the Ignore Bank Select and Target option, Receptor does not respond to Bank

Select messages and, instead, sends any incoming MIDI program change message to the destination bank

chosen from the pop-up selector. Specifically, you can target Program Change message to one of the

following banks:
Multis

Receptor sends incoming Program Change messages to the currently active Multi bank. Any Program

Change message received on any MIDI channel allowed by the Program Change Channel parameter will

be routed to the current Multi bank.
