That depends.
If the samples are freely available as single (wave) files, then you can use them with LMMS' AFP: https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=Wo ... th_Samples

If they are 'build in', then you need to use them inside the VST-plugin. Here you need to use out VST-layer, learn about that here:

Make sure your VST can pass the 5-point-test!

Thank you for the help i really do appreciate it. I have tried and tested the VST-plugiin and it still did not work. I am only lost in the part about the LMMS AFP.

If they are a lot of wav file,l just put them in C:/users/*username*/lmms/samples and then you can see them in the left bar for samples in lmms, where you usually take drums and other samples

AFP Audiofile-processor is just a player/ container for samples.

Welcome to the lmms forums crying4you.

Don't forget to check out the links, that musikbear provided. :)
They contain lots of informative info.

Okay: What is the name of this vst that you're using?
And what version of Lmms are you using?
