You can't load a .xpf as a sound file. Because it isn't a sound file. It doesn't contain any sound information.

Exactly what program/app did you use to do the recording? Can you go back to it and re-save the recording in a proper sound file format? Any recording software should be able to save as a wav and once you have that LMMS will load and play it.

Edit - I've just checked and if it's the Windows 10 Voice Recorder then as standard it saves .m4a files. I don't think LMMS will touch those but there are loads on online apps that will convert from that format to .wav e.g. http://www.zamzar.com/convert/m4a-to-wav/

I know how to convert them myself. :?
:? :? It only works when I make the drum in lmms and not when I record it and convert it an load it to lmms. :? :?

You properly have the AMT of the sample at 0

So once more...what program did you use to record whatever it is and what is the format of the file you're trying to load ?

Are you actually talking about an audio file recorded with a microphone or what is it ?

I found this topic to resolve my problem with m4a. Zamzar has not worked today. I found another one https://www.converter365.com/audio-conv ... m4a-to-wav
