"sample too long"...but also load sampleblock freezes

[XORadmin]

Good evening!

2 issues

For sure a never ending question, already asked here but...

1°) i exported a bunch of samples in .RAW, 8 bits, unsigned,  all between 4ko and 100ko, all less than 4sec...
and still some of them are "too long"
changed the original sd card to an other one...
firmware 1.19



2°) trying to figure out the sampleblocks thing and when i try to load sth it just freezes (see picture)  and i have to reboot the module...



any idea?

You got 4 seconds in general. Not completely. So they all add until the sampletime is either full or a grade of fragmentation is reached.

Which brings us to the 2nd part. Because of the short sample time, fragmentation can bring your project in trouble. I guess you saved a sampleblock while the memory was already corrupted and so bad data have been saved.

You can attach the sampleblock file here and i can check out whats wrong. But if it's not a too important sampleblock, then i suggest not to do it.

Basic rule: Try not to use and replace too many big samples .
