@mwplugs

like i said in my version from a few months ago that worked. for some reason now it isnt working

Try using a build of HISE from that time and see if it works. If it does just build your sample maps in that version until the bug is fixed.

@d-healey i dont think chris would pointlessly remove the bit of sfz functionality hise had. im hoping to just be able to import sfz files. its a button on the sampler and has been for a long time i hope someone can help me figure out how to actually import them as it would take years to manually make these hise samplemaps...

[mwplugs]

@mwplugs but yes using the old scriptnode codegen version worked again. seems strange it was broken but ok :/

[d.healey]

@mwplugs

i dont think chris would pointlessly remove the bit of sfz functionality hise had.

Me neither, but he might have broken it :)

If you can find the last commit where it worked then we can narrow down the cause.

[d.healey]

@mwplugs Looks like this is relevant to you https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/issues/311

[Casey Kolb]

@d-healey @mwplugs Funny that we just ran into this issue at the same time (it's fairly niche). I'm trying to allow SFZ imports in the compiled version of my plugin, but a lot of the SFZ files on Pianobook won't work as they don't have the parent group.

For importing, you'll just need to add <global> to the top of the SFZ file.

@Christoph-Hart Any chance we could add <global> automatically when importing SFZ files?

[d.healey]

@Casey-Kolb

Any chance we could add automatically when importing SFZ files?

Wouldn't it make more sense to just remove the requirement that is present in the SFZ?

[d.healey]

I reckon this has something to do with it - https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/blob/develop/hi_sampler/sampler/SfzImporter.cpp#L231

[Casey Kolb]

@d-healey Not sure what the appropriate course of action is there. Too deep for me ;)
