LMMS Packager is a command-line tool that packages your LMMS project, your samples and your soundfont (SF2) files into one compressed file.

As a music producer, it can be tricky to share an LMMS project that uses some external materials (samples and soundfont files) with the community, because you have to make sure that the user has everything he/she needs to load the project properly.

As a music producer, you may also want to have a backup package, and maybe you also want to version it.

As an LMMS user / music producer, it is painful to import every samples manually into LMMS. This cannot be a problem with just one sample (or soundfont file) but with more than 20 or more, it is a waste of time.

That is why LMMS Packager exists.

It takes your project, retrieves the samples and the soundfont files used by the project and packages them in a .mmpk file. It can also extract the package, and configure the project file.

This is how you export it.

$ lmms-pkg --pack my-project.mmp package-directory/	# It also works with *.mmpz* files

This is how you import your project.

$ lmms-pkg --unpack my-package.mmpk import-directory/

See the wiki to get more examples.

You can get binaries here.

If you are using CodeBlocks, a project file is provided.

If you are using Visual Studio, good luck!

Just do this:

make	# ( -.-)

You will have an lmms-pkg file.

You can also generate an AppImage with this command:

make appimage
