The ultimate, no comprimise configuration of the Receptor Synth/Sampler Hardware that plays Virtual Instruments and Effects, Deluxe professional configuration includes 2GB of matched-pair, low CAS RAM, AMD Turion 64-bit processor (fastest in class) and a whopping 750 GB 7200RPM hard drive with 16MB cache.
It's deceptively simple to describe what Receptor is:
a 2U rack-mountable module that runs standard Windows VST instruments and
effects. Receptor can process and play back 16 simultaneous audio sources, which
can be either internal VSTi instruments or external analog/digital inputs. It
can also run up to 57 VST effects at one time. But that barely hints at what you
can do with Receptor!
- Play, edit and store VST plug-in effects and instruments on a hardware
device
- Incredibly powerful and versatile
- Intuitive mixer-style interface handles up to 16 audio sources at once
- Connects to your Windows or Mac computer for downloading and editing
presets
- Comes with free VST plug-ins!
Play, edit and store VST
plug-ins
Receptor is incredibly easy to use. Just turn it on, dial up a
VST plug-in effect or instrument, and start making music. Optimized for live
performance, Receptor will amaze you with a library of pre-installed plug-ins
and lightning fast MIDI response.
Incredibly powerful and
versatile
Receptor is incredibly versatile. It can run VST software
synths, guitar processors, and audio effects, essentially working as three
products in one. And you can use it in stand-alone mode and connect a keyboard,
mouse and monitor for ease of use. From its super quiet operation in the studio
to its rugged rack mount enclosure, Receptor is a tool designed to help you get
your act together and then take it on the road.
Mixer-style
interface
Receptor's intuitive, mixer-like architecture combines up to 16
different audio sources, which can be either internal VSTi instruments or
external analog/digital inputs. Each source is then routed through its own
inline effects matrix that allows three VST plug-ins to be configured in every
possible parallel/series arrangement. From there, each source is sent to a
dedicated mixer channel, where the sound can be further processed by sending it
to two dedicated effects busses, each with another fully configurable VST
effects matrix. Need more processing? There is yet another VST effects matrix on
the master output, for mastering and sweetening effects.
In all, Receptor
provides architectural support for as many as 16 simultaneous VSTi instruments
and 57 VST effects, while further offering the ability to process external
inputs using its front-panel high-Z input, its rear-panel balanced analog
inputs, or its S/PDIF digital input.
Download and edit presets with
your Windows or Mac computer
And, all this effects power can be harnessed
through Receptor's intuitive front-panel interface, with full front panel and
MIDI access to millions of internal patch locations. For those who prefer mice
to buttons, you can connect a mouse, keyboard and monitor directly to Receptor,
or you can network it to your Mac or PC and control it remotely from a window on
that machine.
"So should I buy this instead of a second
computer?"
You certainly can, and there are some benefits to doing just
that. However, if you want to use a second music computer, you'd also have to
purchase an additional MIDI interface, another audio card or breakout box,
another copy of your VST hosting application, and a second monitor to actually
see it all work. Everything is built-in to Receptor. It's designed to work
equally well whether it's used stand-alone with only its front panel;
stand-alone but connected to its own keyboard, mouse and monitor; or networked
with an existing computer for remote control. Receptor actually enhances an
existing computer; it doesn't replace it. It is, in fact, an ideal companion for
a computer-based DAW, especially if that DAW doesn't run Windows VSTs or is
running low on CPU cycles.
Comes with free VST plug-ins!
As an
added bonus, Receptor also includes $400 of free software from Dash Signature,
LinPlug, Ohm Force and PSP!
