My steps are: New File Import samples as wav file check they are there and make a sound Create a new Instrument Drag Drop samples into instrument this gives the instrument columns for all samples Create new Preset Drag drop the Instrument to the preset Bind Samples to Instrument Bind Instrument to Preset Save the Sf2 Export as Sfz
Frequently either I get no samples in the Sfz sub-folder, or if I open them in Audacity, they are silent. Having said that, I have had success by doing the exact steps I just described, as I wrote this.
So this is a tough question. Which of those steps, if missed would be most likely to cause either no samples, or silent samples?
EDIT: Further to this every now and again the actual samples loaded into my work file are silent as well.When Polyphone saves, it opens to the saved file. I have lost my work.
