The flexibility of the Receptor meets the sonic firepower of IK Multimedia! The Muse Research Total Workstation Rack is a powerful tool that lets you run Windows VST instruments and effects effectively and at blazing speed. This version comes complete with an incredible Total Workstation instrument bundle from IK Multimedia, as well as a vastly beefed-up hard drive, a doubled cache size over the previous Receptor, and support for even faster CPUs than before. The Receptor RevC packs all this into a compact 2U module that's great for live use, and comes with 2GB of RAM. Get the most out of your virtual instruments and plug-ins - run them on the Receptor with the Total Workstation Rack. Muse Research Total Workstation Rack at a Glance:
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. Includes Uniwire for DAW plug-in capability UniWire allows you to connect one or more Receptors to a computer-based digital audio workstation using only Ethernet cables - no audio or MIDI cables are needed. By instantiating UniWire instrument and effects plugins, your digital audio workstation communicates with Receptor as if it were both a virtual instrument and a virtual effect. This means that, unlike "old school" external sound and effects modules, Receptor integrates with your digital audio workstation exactly like a locally hosted plug-in - but without using your host computer's precious CPU cycles. And the best part of all this? UniWire ships FREE with every Receptor. IK Multimedia's Total Workstation Bundle included Made in cooperation with sound design experts at Sonic Reality, SampleTank 2, Sonik Synth 2, Miroslav Philharmonik, SampleTron and SampleMoog, featuring more than 10,000 sounds (27 GB of samples) covering every instrument category, come pre-installed and ready to make music! It doesn't stop there - three of IK's effect plug-ins are also included: T-RackS EQ, the 6-band Mastering EQ from the T-RackS Analog modeled mastering plug-ins collection; AmpliTube 2 DUO, the Guitar Amp & Fx Modeling plug-in; and Ampeg SVX UNO, the Bass Amp & Fx Modeling plug-in! "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. Muse Research Total Workstation Rack Features:
The Total Workstation Rack from Muse Research and IK Multimedia is more powerful and versatile than ever!
