How do I use Uniwire / Receptor with Logic Pro?

I am thinking of purchasing a Receptor Pro. Looks like some people out there are using Logic Pro with the Receptor. How is this possible since Logic doesn't support VST plug-ins? Do I need to purchase a VST to AU wrapper such as FXpansion's VST to AU wrapper v 2.0 for Uniwire to work with Logic? Also, will the Receptor Pro run with Logic 7.1.1? Is there any reason why I would need to update to the latest version of Logic? Any help would be a appreciated. =)

Hmmm... how would I know?
Doesn't Receptor have Midi inputs? - That's a classical concept from back in the 80ies. One would wire a Midi cable from computer to expander and send Midi data to play it... worked great back them, should still work nowadays, and if one thing crashes, the other thing does not necessarily crash as well!

I'm configuring a Receptor for use with Logic right now
My results with the FXpansion wrapper have been inconclusive; it works, but performance has been inconsistent. Haven't isolated the problem yet, it could be a driver conflict (I'm also setting up a new Digi 002r that doesn't like logic 7.1)
The Receptor seems to be working much better as an external MIDI module (connected by physical cables), sounds great- although I'm still having problems getting it to operate polytimbrally without problems

the Receptor forum might be a good place to ask Receptor-related questions
just as a bank is a great place to do all sorts of bank account related activities and a sauna is great for taking saunas

Yeah, of course, it has MIDI. The difference is you can only run 16 channels using MIDI, you can run more if you use UNIWIRE... especially if you are using Kontakt or Konpakt instruments which allow you to run 8 instruments per UNIWIRE instance... meaning you could in theory run 16x8 instruments with UNIWIRE vs. MIDI.

I still have no clue.
As spaceman wrote, maybe you should ask in the Receptor forum instead:
