I am currently working my way through GOS and carrying out the  tasks
listed below. 
If anyone thinks I have got my ideas wrong than please write
correcting my 
assumptions.

1. Removing WARM instruments. These can simply be reproduced by using
a channel eq.

2. Renaming Instruments to create shorter names as there is a limit
in EXS and excessively long names get their ends turned to BinHex?

3. Not sure about this one since I'm now only using OSX and if I
revert to OS9 (other than by running classic) some of my drives which
contain files 
with long names may suffer the same fate if I start in OS9 and open a
folder. Oh the
point here is that I think in OS9 (or could it earlier versions of
Logic) the conversion
of gig files results in sets of instrument which start with their
name whereas now I am
getting numbered instruments from 00 onwards. This means that where
long names 
aretruncated their is less confusion where the names after the number
appear to be 
thesame. This is particually useful as I am trashing all instruments
which end ALT 88
and just relying on the ALT version but you have to load then to
check which is which.

4. I am setting all EXP instruments correctly so they switch samples
from the mod wheel and grouping them in a separate sub folder

5. After I have completed this rather mamoth task I will backup all
GOS instruments to DVD.

6. If anyone thinks it would be useful to have a copy of these edited
instruments write to me for further details. Note sample will need
re-referencing in
EXS manager.
