Ive tried using computers on stage, but plugins take forever to load. Is Receptor any better?
Absolutely. Muse Research employees hate waiting for plugins to load just like everyone else. For this reason, we’ve created some clever techniques to reduce or eliminate the long patch-loading times associated with plugin-based instruments. Our unique Z-load technology can drastically reduce the amount of time required to instantiate a plugin. If instantaneous switching is required, Receptor owners can load up all 16 of Receptor’s instrument channels with different plugins, then save different bypass states as patchesswitching between patches then switches plugin bypass settings without causing the plugin to load. This is called a “Performance Multi.” Samplers, however, are particularly ornery, in that they even want to load and unload their sample data whenever the plugin is bypassedso Muse Research created “snapshots”, which allow you to load all your samples into your samplers, then switch between them without having the samples reload. Receptor is built with the stage performer in
