The difference between effects and sound sources[edit | edit source]
Effects have audio inputs and outputs. Sound sources (synths, samplers, loopers, drum machines, etc.) only have audio outs. Effects are usually labeled as such in R library folders, the user library, and other online sources.
I've created an FX Favorites folder and made that a favorite in the Browser, so whenever I open a new effect and like it, I've got a place to save a copy of it, including any new snaps I've created for it, and any other changes I've made to the file. I usually use its original name, so I can track that down if necessary, perhaps with some additional info to distinguish it from the unchanged version.
