Tracker 1.7 - Samples Cropped to Under 1s Are Halved

[cky]

Bug Description

A long sample cropped to less than 1 second seems to get halved in playback.

When editing a sample that was recorded on the Polyend Tracker (recorded on version 1.6), I attempted to crop the 3 second sample down to .6s.

When playing the sample back, it only plays back to .3s, changing the playback method results in the same issue - so on a loop, a cropped sample that should be .6s will only play until .3s then loop. This happens in the sample playback, the track preview, and even the preview in the sample loader.

This issue seems to happen when a sample is cropped to below 1s. When cropping the same sample to 1s or more, it behaves properly and the full sample is played back.
The sample seems to always be cut in half, so a .6s sample stops at .3s, a .8s sample stops at .4, and a .4s sample stops at .2.

This happens with multiple samples.

Reproduction Steps

1. Record a sample on the polyend tracker longer than 2s
2. Load the sample into your project
3. Using the sample editor, crop the sample to a .5s window
4. Preview the sample in the sample playback, it should only play until .25s of the sample.

Occurrence

Always reproducible with samples recorded on 1.6.
I have not tested pre-loaded samples or samples recorded on 1.7.

Hi @cky ,

Sorry you’re experiencing this issue. We believe it’s already logged as Firmware 1.7.0: Sample gets cropped after upgrading from 1.6.0 to 1.7.0

But to exclude the possibility these are 2 separate issues, we need some more information from you:

1. Could you please attach the project or samples which you mention in step 1 of the reproduction steps?
2. Do you experience the issue with Snap to zero = On/Off, or both settings?
3. Are you sure samples are exactly halved or roughly “half”?

@cky

Build: unsure, whatever is the latest stable available on the website - I can check this tomorrow.

You can find this on the device itself, just go to: Config > Firmware > Build > write down the number next to it

Thanks for the bug report and best regards

Hi @cky , can you help us with the answers please?

Most likely a duplicate of either:

Sometimes samples don't play until end when Snap to zero = On

Bug Description When I load particular samples on the polyend tracker mini in the Sample Loader, their unloaded preview (SD Card section on the left) is different from their loaded preview (Instruments section on the right). Sometimes the sample is cut short completely, while other times it seems to cut short for one audio channel. UPDATE / “fix”: disabling zero-crossing in the settings fixed this, so it’s a zero-crossing issue. Reproduction Steps Load the attached WAV samples on to an SD car…

Or maybe even:

Samples get cropped after upgrading from 1.6.0 to 1.7.0

I noticed one sample in a project being cropped after upgrading to 1.7.0. I isolated this one sample into a separate project, and the same thing happened there: on 1.6.0, there’s the full sample. On 1.7.0, it’s cropped. This can be reproduced by just switching between 1.6.0 and 1.7.0, and opening the same project. TrackerTest.zip (56.0 KB) I experienced a few freezes on 1.7.0, some happening in a project where this particular sample was used, even specifically around the time that the sample …

I will close it as duplicate because of no response from the reporter.

@cky If you experience different issue than described in two reports above, please let us know and we’ll re-open this bug report to analyse if further. Otherwise please follow the two bug reports above to find out when the fix will be ready. Thanks for your understanding.
