Try placing the unzipped "cello f" folder into directory "path_to_foo"
then:

SampledInstrument readSimpleInstrument: 'cello' fromDirectory: 'path_to_foo'

I see your comment about the negative loop length, however this appears to
be the bug itself---I verified in Snd that the loop points are 44100 and
88200.
