Correct.  Nothing you can do about it. Uhm, isn't there an 'add all' 
button? I thnk I remeber there being one...

Again correct.  A workaround is the following: number all files in 
the order you want them (i.e. this involves changing the filename, 
which you don't want to do if the same samples are used someplace 
else as well).  Then I could send you an applescript that converts 
numerals in filenames to midi notenames -- like 60 becomes C3.  If in 
the EXS preferences you then have the option checked to "read root 
note from filename", the samples will end up where you want them.
Somewhat involved, I know, but the best I can suggest.  And if you're 
dealing with tons of files this method beats having to set the root 
note manually for each zone.  Just let me know if you want me to send 
you the script.
