A Receive has no parameters. Its single output takes the type and lane count of the signal connected to the matching Send, so it can carry a mono tone, a stereo bundle or, once those domains exist, video, control and MIDI. The compiler lowers each Receive to a direct connection from the Send's driver, so nothing runs at playback. Several Receives may listen to one bus; each is an independent pick-up point and none of them sum.
Use it wherever you would otherwise drag a long cable: feeding the same source into several effect chains, bringing a shared modulation or bed into a distant corner of the patch, or picking up a bus to meter it.
Each help patch is an ordinary Toy that teaches one idea. The diagram shows the Patch; the preview shows its Frame. Open it in TuneToys to play and edit it.
1. One bus, two listeners
beginner Teaches: buses
Two Receives pick up the same bus: one dry, one filtered, summed at the output.

Fundamental pitch, capped below Nyquist; detune uses cents. Range: 20–20000 Hz. Default: 220 Hz. Logarithmic scale. Units: Hz.
Hz
Output gain. Range: 0–0.5 ×. Default: 0.12 ×. Linear scale. Units: linear gain.
×
Selects the implemented algorithm. Choices are discrete and are not LFO targets. Range: 0–7. Default: 0. Linear scale. Units: unitless.
Cycle offset; Gate rising edges restart phase from this position. Range: 0–1 cycles. Default: 0 cycles. Linear scale. Units: cycles.

Pitch offset in cents. Range: -1200–1200 cents. Default: 0 cents. Linear scale. Units: cents.
cents
On or off. A rising edge retriggers; held on runs the oscillator or envelope. A control cable switches it at 0.5. Range: 0–1. Default: 1. Linear scale. Units: unitless.
Semitones a full pitch bend on the MIDI input moves the note, up or down. Range: 0–48 st. Default: 2 st. Linear scale. Units: st.
st
Time constant of the slide from one MIDI note's pitch to the next; 0 jumps. Range: 0–2000 ms. Default: 0 ms. Linear scale. Units: ms.

Filter cutoff, capped at 0.45 times sample rate. Range: 40–18000 Hz. Default: 600 Hz. Logarithmic scale. Units: Hz.
Selects the implemented algorithm. Choices are discrete and are not LFO targets. Range: 0–5. Default: 1. Linear scale. Units: unitless.
One or two cascaded state-variable stages; notch/all-pass retain their response semantics. Range: 0–1. Default: 0. Linear scale. Units: unitless.
Reduces resonant gain as Q increases. Range: 0–1. Default: 0. Linear scale. Units: unitless.

Position on a two-lane mix: −1 left, 0 centre, 1 right. Constant-power for a one-lane channel, balance for a two-lane one; ignored on other widths. Range: -1–1. Default: 0. Linear scale. Units: unitless. The ring fills from zero for this signed linear range. Manual editing is unavailable while this host owns the control.

Both Receives name the bus 'lead'. Each one is an independent pick-up point.
Receives never sum. Two listeners feed a Mixer, which is where the mix happens.
