	Adding effects to samples greatly expands the possibilities of their sound beyond the original audio. The way this is achieved is by using various audio effects and other devices to construct an FX Chain, which can affect any number of samples simultaneously. FX Chains (.xrnt) can be loaded and saved as presets using [[Libraries#Specific Preset Types\|the drop-down menu located at the top right corner]].

			== Output Routing ==

			When you create an FX Chain within the Sampler, by default, that instrument will then be restricted to playing on a single [[Pattern Editor#Tracks\|track]] in Renoise, or a single [[Plugin#Plugin_Instrument_Properties\|output bus]] in Redux. However, at the right of each FX Chain is the Output routing option, which can be set to route the audio to a specific track or output bus, and this can be different for each FX Chain.

			In Renoise, the default value is ‘Current Track’. When playing the instrument via the keyboard or MIDI controller, this refers to the track currently selected in the [[Pattern Editor]]. When playing back a song this refers to the track that the most recent note was triggered in. If notes are played in more than one track simultaneously, output will be routed to the right-most of those tracks.
