1) I loaded a drum sample "SD ANA.022" which fitted nicely with the kick drum I had created in that instance of PunchBOX. Saved the project in Reaper. Then I opened the PunchBOX sample browser again and deleted the sample from the browser. Reloaded the project in Reaper. PunchBOX loaded fine except for the module which had the "SD ANA.022" sample loaded now had no sample loaded and showed the text "SD ANA" rather than "SD ANA.022". If I had accidentally erased that sample from the PunchBOX sample browser and then reloaded that project, I would have no record of what sample I used, so would have some difficulty in finding it. As this was just an experiment I reloaded the "SD ANA.022" sample back into that module in PunchBOX and all was fine. But you can see the problem here when users start to add or remove samples from the PunchBOX sample browser. In fact later, when trying to load samples using the PunchBOX sample browser I noticed that the sample "SD ANA.022" appeared as "SD ANA" in the PunchBOX sample browser. Not good.
2) Cannot load more than a total of 3 samples into the PunchBOX sample browser when trying to load one sample at a time into it. If there are 3 samples in the browser, I have to delete a sample to load another one.
2B) Just gone straight back to PunchBOX, deleted 2 of the 3 samples in the PunchBOX sample browser and now I cannot load a sample into it. Select a sample, hit "OK" - nothing happens - no new sample in the browser. Select a sample, hit "OK" - nothing happens - no new sample in the browser. I have closed the browse and reopened the browser. Nothing.
2C) Just gone straight back to PunchBOX and now it works fine! Even no 3 sample limit now!
3) At no point have I been able to load multiple samples into the PunchBOX sample browser in one go. Just loads the first sample that is selected when more than one is highlighted.
The PunchBOX sample browser just doesn't work for me. Totally unpredictable

I really just want to be able to load samples from my folders that are already on my hard drive, skip through these samples whilst auditioning them and for PunchBOX to remember the location of the samples that I do use so that they can be reloaded into my Reaper project or saved as party of a preset. I have no need for tagging. I am sure I am one of many who feel the same.....................
