drop the .wav on LMMS AudioFileSNDF — pitch-tracks across the keys. export sf2 is the real fix for looped pads — it bakes the loop points AND a click-safe attack/release into the instrument, so it just works across the keyboard (load via the Sf2 Player). loop: on exports a looped .wav instead. leave loop off + use export wav for bells/stabs/plucks. seed + category rebuilds any patch.
bankstash patches, then bundle them into one multi-instrument .sf2 — each becomes a selectable preset in the Sf2 Player
