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 plugin—but without using your host computer's precious CPU cycles. And the best part of all this? UniWire ships FREE with every Receptor.
