mate stubb Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I figured that since this came up recently on CloneWheel, it deserved its own topic here - I haven't seen any mention of it here which surprises me. I haven't seen it in person but it looks impressive - Tony, please chime in! It's a dedicated hardware player for VSTi built for live use: Muse Receptor Moe --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I thik that this offer from East West is very tempting. An expanded Receptor with Collossus installed. Throw a few more libraries on it and Wow! Robert This post edited for speling. My Sweetwater Gear Exchange Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben One Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Moe, I bought a Receptor last year, when it first came out. At that time, I posted my first impressions , and my opinions from then still hold. It's a well-designed, well-built box, and I recommend it. It seems to be catching on, and I think a Receptor that you buy today will be useful for quite a few years, even as the speed of its processor is eclipsed by faster computers. Since it's dedicated to playing audio, and powerful enough for running current-generation VSTs, I think it will be desirable and useful for quite a few years. The downside about it, I've always felt, is that it's not strictly a universal VST player. Not all VSTs are officially supported on it. Still, there's a large list of unsupported plugins that work on it. There's a useful Receptor forum , which is moderated by some of the folks at Muse Research (and in fact, I believe the entire website is owned by Muse). Among other things, it contains a list of unsupported plug-ins. Hope this helps. Ben Eddie Jobson Tribute Projects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
