@Christoph-Hart Ah, that was it, thank you!

@d-healey I get the same "jumping" phenomenon here as well, running latest build from source code.
Mac Os

The XML recovery isn't working.

Here is the .hip file. I had to change the extension to mp3 so it would upload (maybe .hip should be an allowed upload format).

irishWhistles.mp3
irishwhistles.hip (done ;) )

Here is the recovered (invalid) XML. This is missing lots of things.

The recovery file is written to the presets folder but when you use File >> Open XML it defaults to the XmlPresetBackups folder, so maybe that would be a better location to place the recovery xml.

@d-healey Thanks for the suggestion. Debian has back in time... I just made zip files of the most important folders. It's all good I had copies of everything and restored everything back to working order. My apologies for freaking out.

Seems to be an OS issue. I just edited the import code to disable the native file browser and multi-selection worked fine. So I don't think there is much that can be done about it.

@d-healey Thanks a lot man!
But I don't know if I should feel better or worse now 😆 😆
I recovered 30% of my work thanks to timemachine

Anyway that would be cool to have this bug (if it is) corrected when compiling @Christoph-Hart

@Christoph-Hart im gonna do a proper debug and figure out what's up. I should note that this issue is only with FX plugin export. Virtual Instruments are okay.

This is alread fixed on the development branch.

@Christoph-Hart said in Simple Gain Doesn't Work on Sampler:

or a timemachine and hnode ;)

You tease

If you change the samplemap, the sampler will also change its channel amount which will overwrite custom routings you‘ve made before. In order to prevent this, I‘ve added a scripting function called Sampler.setStaticRoutingMatrix() or something like that.

If you can somehow reproduce the empty monolith, let me know, I am currently going through the sampler module and clean up all those annoying little things that have creeped in over the course of time.

@orange Same thing here, same solution.

Upgraded to SDK 2.3.1 and it finally worked

@staiff -- plus adding yet another extension makes the .htaccess regex even more nightmarish....
