Routing Devices
Routing devices can externally route channels from Renoise to another application or vice versa, as well as internally route audio from one track to another.
#Line-In Device
The #Line-in Device can route inputs from your soundcard into Renoise, e.g. microphone or line-in jack. This way you can listen to an instrument directly, or route back MIDI synthesizers that are triggered with Renoise.

- Channel: When your soundcard offers more than one input, you can choose a sub-channel here. The recording device is set up in the Audio Preferences.
- Input: The channel to be routed to Renoise (left, right or both). The level meter to the right of the buttons displays the current input levels.
- Latency: Select from "Live Recording Mode" for guitar, vocals etc. or "MIDI Return Mode" for re-routed Renoise triggered synths. This will apply the appropriate amount of latency to the signal.
- Panning: The panning of the input stream.
- Volume: The gain of the input stream.
#ReWire-In Device
When running Renoise as the ReWire master, you can route other ReWire slave applications into Renoise by using this device. A ReWire slave can be another audio sequencer or a softsynth like VSampler or Kontakt. Once the device is selected and the application is opened, both program's time-lines will be synchronised. If available, MIDI inputs of ReWire devices will then show up as regular devices in the Renoise Instrument Settings panel, allowing you to automate and trigger the ReWire applications from Renoise.

- Device: The ReWire slave to be loaded into Renoise. After selecting a device, many applications (e.g. Reason) will be auto-started. If this doesn't happen, then just launch the program yourself and it should be automatically set as a slave to Renoise.
- Channel: When the device has more than one audio channel available, you can select it here. To route more than one channel from the same slave to Renoise, simply use multiple #ReWire-In Devices with the same "Device" setting.
- Input: The channel to be routed to Renoise (left, right or both). The level meter to the right of the buttons displays the current input levels.
- Panning: The panning of the input stream.
- Volume: The gain of the input stream.
#Send Device
A #Send Device routes a track's output to a Send Track within Renoise. By routing more than one track to the same Send Track, you can apply the same DSP effect chain to the audio from multiple tracks simultaneously. A Send Track can also make use of a #Send Device, so there are many possibilities available for complex routing.
File:Vvoois renoise routing send.png
- Mute/Keep Source:
- Mute Source: The signal is muted after it is routed to the Send Track, meaning that the current track becomes silent and DSPs appearing after the Send Device in the DSP chain will have no effect.
- Keep Source: The signal is routed to the Send Track, but also continues to play on the current track (see illustration below).
- Amount: The volume of the signal sent to the Send Track.
- Receiver: The Send Track that will receive the audio.
