While browsing KVR, I found that one of the SM VSTs aren't compatible with Receptor: http://www.kvraudio.com/get/2326.html Receptor may have a small market share, but add to that with people using a VST patch with Linux (the same or similar method Receptor uses), there is a doublely-small people who may use a SM VST under Linux/Receptor... Has anyone tried SM VSTs in Linux? How well did they work? Not a biggie, & I'd rather have Mac compatibility over Linux... TIA

Hi, I stumbled over this thread, because I am considering to buy a Receptor - are there any news about this? I really need my own plugins for liveperformances and my windows laptop is too unstable in extreme situations :-( anyone?

greetings, Michael

I think there are a number of current reliance on Windows OS calls in the SynthMaker environment that would prevent them from working with Linux (and therefore Receptor). It may be that with the next major version and a new event mechanism this restriction may be eliminated but I have seen no firm commitment on this issue.

Thanks, thats bad news :-( I hope things will change in the future. Does anyone know if SE plugins work with Receptor? (wrong forum, I know 😉)

Greetings, Michael

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
