Oh yeah that did the trick! Many thanks. While you’re here, what’s the best way to rename my samples so that they load in sampswap?

I think most naming errors are not errors anymore. but just to be safe - you won’t have problems if your file doesn’t have any spaces (i.e. using _ instead of space) and if it ends in .wav.

Mmmm, that does not seem to work for me. I can’t seem to find any loop in any library, with a dash or not, that actually loads. I assume it’s done in the edit/parameters/load file… I shows the file as loaded but when I hit play, it’s the same amen_resampled that’s on every track.
Also what is the “make beat” parameter for? It seems to have no function at all.

looks like your filenames have spaces and thats screwing up sampswap up. its not supposed to - I checked the source and its supposed to grab the whole filename. anyways its a bug so I will attempt to make a similarly named file and see if I can reproduce the bug and fix it. until there is a fix, you’ll have to remove all the spaces from folder names and file names.
I write a lot of Bash scripts at work. I’ve spend waaaay too long over the years jumping through hoops to get my scripts to work with filenames containing spaces and other non-alpha-numeric characters, so I feel your pain!
