I've been seduced by the thought of going the hardware route lately. Low latency performance, no more crashes, no more "updates required, install now?", no more compatibility issues.

So I dipped my toes into a Muse Receptor. It was love at first sight. :love: Incredibly low latency, plugins feel like real hardware, one monitor dedicated for the entire thing, no distractions. It had hardware-like limitations (like channel count, insert FX slots). It had its flaws, but you get used to them pretty quickly.

I felt inspired, invited to explore more, even of the same synths I own on the PC. There was some crappy 32-bit free synth which I immensely enjoyed playing, adding FX, coming up with a completely different sound and saving the whole chain. The same synth, I wouldn't have bothered in my PC because it didn't look flashy. With being spoiled by the likes of Omnisphere 2 who'd bother?

I ended up getting 2 of these. Now I'm at a dilemma. Should I stick to using the receptor like an external hardware workstation (and host plugins), or like a dedicated slave machine (like VE Pro). Or should I use it standalone with a hardware midi sequencer as I originally intended??

Decisions..
