Hi James,

The .gig files are like archives. The samples cannot be read directly 
from them. Yes, you first have to put them into your sampler 
instruments folder and then call them up. The act of calling them up 
from within the exs will convert them to a native recognizable format. 
Once they are all converted you can trash the .gig files. You won't 
need them on your HD any more. And if you like, you can trash the newly 
created Garritan sampler instruments and just use Sean's.

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.
