BAD BAD BAD HISE!

@ossian1961 XML is much easier to fix because we can view it in a text editor.

Anyway I hope it doesn't happen, it's a quite annoying thing ;)

[d.healey]

Urg mine's broken again now...

[d.healey]

Now HISE is being even more strange

[ossian1961]

Awwww! :O

[d.healey]

I just converted all of my sample maps to monoliths and so far (fingers crossed) everything seems to be working. So maybe HISE is having some problems with wav files...

[Dan Korneff]

I've been having no luck with the sampler in the latest build. Check this thread for more:

Could be a CPU issue... I can't make monoliths on my PC, but can on my mac. Either way, I get errors on both when creating monoliths

Yeah I've been following that thread. No idea what the cause is, I'm not using the latest build though.

Oh no EVERYTHING is gone now... none of the hip files have anything in them the xml doesnt work - @Christoph its now useless -

every single autosave is now empty

All I get from HISE is:

ModernistXylophone:! Component with name wasn't found

This post is deleted!

[Lindon]

Oh I go one to open....its an old back up but..

[Christoph Hart]

Wow, this is like going to the supermarket, coming back and your house is on fire :)

So first things first: @Lindon, if you have any file somewhere that contains more than just zero byte, send it to me and I'll try to recover it. I assume you have made backup copies, otherwise, please use Git in the future and take this as a (admittingly annoying) lesson.

@d-healey Can you explain the exact process needed to reproduce this issue (I get that it has something to do with changing types of components), but I lost track of where you put it.

To the other people: please make a separate thread for every bug. A general "HISE IS BAD" thread is not the smartest way to get heard :)

Actually all my problems stopped once I converted the wavs to a monolith :)

[Christoph Hart]

Yes, this is in fact a problem, because I also convert the sample to monoliths as soon as they are edited, so I don't enjoy the bugginess of HISE's playback of non-monolithed files (I consider using .wav files in HISE as a small intermediate step, but maybe I am wrong with this assumption).

[Lindon]

I just tried:

Convert all Samples to Monolith + SampleMap

and HISE tells me:

you need a sampler with the name 'Sampler' in the Master Chain

[Christoph Hart]

you need a sampler with the name 'Sampler' in the Master Chain

I know the documentation is lacking, but this one is pretty self descriptive :)

[Lindon]

WHY would I need that - I want to name my samplers after the voices!

[Christoph Hart]

That's actually just a workflow tool. It converts the samplemaps in your SampleMap directory to HLACs. Your actual project XML has nothing to do with this.

1. Create a new instrument
2. Add a sampler
3. Run the tool
4. Load your actual project and hope that it loads :)
5. Enjoy HLAC

[Lindon]

So I have 4 samplers named: Voice1 Voice2 Voice3 Voice4

So I've added a 5th one called "Sampler"

I've run "the tool" - which I think you mean Tools->Convert all samples to Monolith+SampleMap

So now I can remove "Sampler" ?
