Processing voices for theatre with receptor

[stevep314]

Hello,

I was wondering how many voices the receptor would be able to handle to apply "live" fx to?

I got the question from a theatre production team that would like to build the characters on their vocal processed "sound"

Would the receptor be a good "solid" device for this?

How many inputs can it handle via Adat?

I know it depends on what kind of plugins and which receptor we are talking about.

But anyone has any experience with this?

Anyway, thank you very much for your time,

Hi,
Receptor has (at the same time) a total of inputs as follows: 2 signals coming in from analog trs jack inputs (one from guitar input OR two from analog trs inputs alternatively) one digital stereo (2 ch) from coaxial s/pdif. Adat outputs (8 ch) are enabled, inputs are disabled.
I have a Behringer ada8000 a/d/a converter only used to have 8 xlr balanced separate outputs more.
Once signals are in, it can handles them in a "normal" path flexibility (eg. you have feedback from a channel out to bring it to another as you want and add or remove vsts from the chain/signal path).
Anyway is a rock solid unit, it seems not to crash except from sometime using a heavy load of dfd sampled based plugins.
i work in theatre with my two units and NEVER crashed during a show.
Ciao,
PGi

Receptor can use EITHER the analog inputs OR the S/PDIF digital input.

Also, there are actually THREE mono analog inputs:
- the 1/4" guitar input on the front panel
- the rear panel 1/4" LEFT line input
- the rear panel 1/4" RIGHT line input

All inputs can be used with microphones if suitable pre-amps or impedance converters are used.

The rear panel inputs can be treated separately by using my free plugin GH-LRSelector, available from the bottom of this page: http://www.ghservices.com/products/muse/
