Muse Research RECEPTOR

It's a unique and versatile musical instrument that takes the best software- based synthesizers and effects processors available, and turns them into real instruments. With the push of a button, Receptor can transform itself from a sampler into a guitar processor; from a drum module into a synthesizer; or from a delicate mastering tool into a screaming drawbar organ. Receptor is designed to be equally at home on the stage or in the studio. It is compatible with Windows VST and "Receptorized" plug-ins. It can simultaneously run up to 16 VSTi instruments and 57 VST effects. Use it in stand-alone mode for live perfomance or connect it to your network in the studio reducing the burden on your DAW CPU. Up to ten Receptors can be connected to a single computer via gigabit Ethernet. It has 24-bit / 96kHz converters, balanced +4dbm inputs and outputs on 1/4" TRS connectors, high-Z instrument input, MIDI I/O, USB ports, 1/4" headphone, plus S/PDIF stereo digital I/O.

The Standard Receptor includes:

• 2GB of RAM
• 160GB hard drive
