Exporting

To export all the sounds from LMMS:

Make sure the various tracks (each corresponding to one sound) you want to export are enabled (their green light on the left must be on);
Go to File > Export Tracks... and choose a directory to export the sounds in;
In the encoding settings choose "Compressed OGG-File (*.ogg)" as the file format, 48000 Hz as the samplerate and 320 KBit/s as the bitrate in order to match the official sounds;
Click "Start" and wait for the process to finish.

One annoying thing is that LMMS always exports the tracks with a number prefix in front of every file name, to solve this I found a simple Bash routine to rename all the files and get rid of the prefix:

for fp in ./*_*; do
  mv "$fp" "${fp#*_}"
done
