Heather Phares of AllMusic wrote, "the set finds her taking a technical, almost scientific approach to experimental techno." Glenn Jackson of Resident Advisor stated, "Live manipulation gives In Situ its textures, as Halo hardly lets a few bars go by without tweaking rhythmic elements, introducing new sonics or briefly leaning on an effect." He added, "The movements are unpredictable but never distracting or overwhelming." DeForrest Brown of XLR8R commented that "In Situ is ultimately beautiful in design, and speaks quite a bit to where Laurel could potentially go, now that she's spent some time exploring her understanding of sound design and club music."
