Hi,

Alex actually picked this up and I forgot about it until I compiled the latest version from GitHub today.

I have a project created in Alpha that I uploaded to the sharing platform at https://lmms.io/lsp/?action=show&file=23898 . It does a trick to include 4 bit PCM (samples). The 'samples' play on Alpha but not the nightly build or the latest version on GitHub. I know this was not the intent of Xpressive (to store samples as expressions), but it has got me thinking, if these aren't working anymore, what other Xpressive expressions also aren't working. If you open the linked project, you should be able to hear singing - which you won't anymore.

Also, I wasn't able to reply on the sharing platform, it looks it keeps on logging me out at present.

Hi, please file a bug report here https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/issues/new.

If you'd instead prefer to talk to an LMMS developer directly, you can ask on Discord here: https://lmms.io/chat

Thanks for reporting.... Tracking it here: https://github.com/LMMS/lmms.io/issues/431

It's fixed for now, a more permanent solution is under investigation.
