Hi, I downloaded a package of sound from youtube and put them in lmms. I wanted to make an automation with one of that sounds that works with audio file processor. I know how to do automation; I also did some automations with triple oscillator and zynaddsubFX, but they didn't work with this sounds because you can't do automations with audio file processor ( or almost this is what I know about). So is there a way to make aumations with audio file processor?(Sorry for my bad english bt I'm Italian).

You can automate dials on audio file processor. (AFP), exactly as you can automate any other dial, in any plugin, so i think you are trying to do something very specific?
Recently i uploaded a tutorial, that do automate AFP

Is that in the line of what you like to do?
Otherwise please explain more detailed

I saw your tutorial and this isn't what I want to do. I intend that i go searching for the frequence knob of an instrument, then I keep pressing control and I drag it on an automation track (after I work in the automation track for get the desiderate effect). I do this for give a different frequence to the sound, but after that I do this with an AFP sound this ignore that and it's like the automation doesn't exist. Is there a way to do this with audio file processor?

I think i start to understand what you are trying. You want different 'frequencies' meaning PITCH from a single sample in AFP! Is that correct understood?
Unfortunately, when you change pitch in AFP, lmms will change the length of the sample, you need to use a program like Audacity and rebuild the sample for every pitch you like to use, but its quite buggy, because one AFP can only hold one sample. We do not have a sampler in lmms

Yes,I wanted to do this. But is there another way to do this because my track is based on this. First there was a zynaddsubFX sound and automations were possible but now I have a better sound that without automations doesn't give any sense at the track...

No, lmms cant change pitch, and preserve the length of a sample, as i said, you need to use Audacity, and load one sample for each specific note.
a sampler is ofcause the best tool /plagin for this, but afaik, no sampler works without issues in lmms, except in linux

Ok...now i'm going to find something new for my track. Thank you so
