Mac OS 10.15.7 I receive an error message "ConvertWithMoss" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash.
I called my Mac rude for insulting your work, but I am wondering how to properly install.
Thanks!

Is this the stuff in https://github.com/bitwig/multisample?

Yes, exactly.

I've opened it successfully on macOS 10.14.16 Mojave. Maybe it was a dodgy download, in which case, just download again and reinstall. Maybe it was an incompatibility with Catalina. Anyone else having this problem?

I've DL it 3X yesterday and 2X today. Same message each time.

Is there any way to keep the loops of an, with Apple Logic Autosampler created, multisamples / Patch? Autosamplers penrosemachine sounds awesome smooth.

Yes, Mac is rude, therefore I do not use it

The error is totally misleading. It simply means that it cannot verify the source from which you downloaded the file and therefore puts it in quarantine. This quarantine is a flag it puts on the files.

Luckily this can be easily fixed:
Open a terminal and enter the application folder (/Applications/ConvertWithMoss.app)
Then issue the command (you need to enter your admin password):
sudo xattr -rc .

After that it should start.

I do not know about Autosampler but I guess since it is Apple it creates AIFF files, right? If this is the case look for a batch converter to convert the AIFF files to WAV. After that you can use ConvertWithMoss to create Multisample or SFZ files from the WAVs.

First of all, your instruction isn't clear and of course doesn't work the way you explained it. You probably just wrote it out of memory and you know all the ins and outs of the terminal.
The correct command assuming you placed it into the applications folder is:

sudo xattr -rc /Applications/ConvertWithMoss.app
Then type in your password...

(no need to cd into the application folder btw...)

2. I never ever had this issue with any non-notarized third party app. As you programmed/compiled it on your Mac, you don't run into that. I bet there is a way to set those flags at the source...

It is a Java program wrapped into a Mac application. I guess an unwrapped version could also run, but would need Java to be installed?

1) This is exactly what I explained above.
2) Yes, it uses jpackage which might have some squirks since I get a similar warning on Windows.

It didn't work, regardless. Sample conversion isn't a big priority for me anyway, so it's ok.

i've been trying to successfully convert some wave files for a bit now. the naming schema is as follows:
A0_ff_stac.wav
A0_mf_stac.wav
A0_p_stac.wav

i've tried the following detection pattern of:
*_ff_*,*_mf_*,*_p_*

but i receive an error that says it's unable to find the velocity info for a particular samp.

so i renamed my samples where i replaced ff to 003, mf to 002, and p to 001, but this time i received an error about their being multiple samples for L and R channels.

any suggestions?

It should work if add a text to the number, e.g. "_layer001_" etc. Since the numbers can be confused with the note names, that will be improved a bit in the next update.

[zfigz]

hmm, i tried it again with the following:
`B6_layer001_sft_stac.wav`
`B6_layer002_sft_stac.wav`
`B6_layer003_sft_stac.wav`
and received the same error:

Code: Select all

Could not create multisample: Could not detected velocity layer information in: B6_layer001_sft_stac.wav

my detection pattern was as follows:
*_layer001_*,*_layer002_*,*_layer003_*

The pattern needs to be: _layer*_

If this does not work either, please send me the files.

[zfigz]

okay, progress. now my error is as follows:

Code: Select all

Could not detect a name.
