Jeremy,

There are a couple of us on here who have experimented with different 
such setups.  I've mostly been hamstrung by the fact that I'm on Mac, 
but I've come across one or two things that you might try (the 
Receptor is roughly PC-compatible, IIRC.  right?)

Try MidiFripp, a freebie from Nay-Seven ( 
http://nay-seven.com/MidiFrippen.htm ).

There's also possibly MidiZoid Delay and MidiZoid Looper ( 
http://perso.orange.fr/numerikart/products.htm ).

Finally, if you can get Plogue Bidule to run inside the Receptor, you 
can pretty much roll your own as well.  That's what I've had to do so 
far.

Good luck, and let us know how it works out.  :)
