In the main EXS interface, just pick a soundfont-file as if it was a 
normal EXS-instrument (i.e. click-hold on the big black field between 
the Edit and Option buttons).  If you do, the EXS should 
automatically start converting the soundfont.  Samples extracted from 
the soundfont will be put in the "SoundFont Samples" folder inside 
the Logic application folder and can, if you want, be moved to a 
dedicated audio drive afterwards.  The instrument files will be 
stored in the "Sampler Instruments" folder and should remain there.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
