By MW I assume that you are talking about modulation crossfade.
Some Giga programs that use both velocity switch and modulation
crossfades at the same time cannot be correctly converted to my
knowledge. This is because the crossfade amount is applied to
the modulation and to the velocity switch at the same time.
Therefore you cannot have a modulation crossfade (smooth)
and a velocity switch (hard) at the same time. Unless I'm missing
something here but I already spent quite some time on this problem.

This is required to be compatible with the MacOS9 file system.
