Samples lost in Cronox

When I save a preset and I reload that sound, then the samples are lost. It's not with every preset, but with a lot of them.

Why is this happening?

Would be good to get more infos about the version you're using (i assume it's the latest version) and on which mac hine (PC & Mac), so Peter and his crew can easier find the problem... I have to say that i had never problems with it...

Maybe you should throw "all" the sampels you're using in to the main directory which is called sampels...

I'm using the latest Cronox on Windows Vista Home Edition. My DAW is FL Studio 9,5 beta.

What I'm doing is the following. I have a directory with samples on my removable drive. When I design a preset I get some samples from that drive. When I'm finished I save the preset on another drive. On that drive there are then the preset (.fxp) and the cronox samples (.d4u). Sometimes when I reload that preset the .d4u will load, but shows a completly different waveform. This is not allways.

Ok, thanx for the infos, hope peter can help you...

is it possible that your samples have the same name as samples in the factory folder, so Cronox is loading the factory sample by default?

Yeah, good idea, if i remember right, CronoX is first looking into the main factory folder.
Try to move the sampels into the main folder and maybe the problem is solved...

Don't think so, because I use names for minerals. Haven't seen any in the factory directory.

Hi Yuroun,

cannot reproduce the prob here. What I could think of, is when using
external drives that they mount differently each time (different drive letter)
and this may cause trouble (though it should not).

What generator are you using ? (I mean where is it happening in)

Does maybe the waveform "look" different because of different zoom factor upon load
or does it sound wrong ?

Best
Peter

It looks and sounds wrong. I'll upload a sample preset so you can check it yourself. I'll mail you the link.

Ok, thanks, Yoroun,
please explain a little bit, I see a preset with two samples loaded, and I see in the folder these two samples. Furthermore I see two WAV files, one seems to be the same as one of the two of these presets while the other has a different name and I dont know how its related.

Well, I made the preset from the wav files included in the archive.

When I saved the preset, Cronox created his D4U/D4T files. When I relead the preset the D4U files are loaded. In this particular preset the preset sound totally wrong. If you reload the original wavefiles then you hear the difference.

Hmm,
I'm sorry, I cant get this together. The names of the samples differ, but CronoX does not create new names, so I guess there is just some mismatch. However, i tried loading the WAV, saved them to a new preset, loaded the preset and it sounded and looked as before. To be sure I made two screenshot I layered,

As you can see, there is just a small area differently, thats the sample filename extension which changed from originally WAV, otherwise both samples are clear (you would see a blurry area like the extension when there would be any difference). I'm sorry, it isnt reproduceable here.

Sorry, I included the wrong original wav files.

I reïnstall CronoX maybe my problem will disapear then.
