and I finally got it to work 🙂  
my .sh file now looks like this:

```
#!/bin/bash

xbindkeys -f ~/.bindsamplerbox 
xterm -e python /opt/SamplerBox/samplerbox.py 

```

and this `.bindsamplerbox` is like this

```
"killall xterm"
Escape

```

I know it’s not the most elegant solution, but it works. I also didn’t bother resetting the binding yet, might just add `&& killall xbindkeys` to the binding itself if I’ll have any issues
