Has anyhone had this problem with 3rd party imported samples to EXS?

On the HZ Guitar CD several samples don't start at the zero level which
produces this audible click. If you listen to the raw samples in your Roland
sampler you will hear the clicks.
I tried to adjust the attack time to remove this click but unfortunately
doing
so has some serious side effects, it slows down the attack and increase the
sense of latency. The problem with this samples is that there is a click at
the beginning (not on all samples of course) and usually up to 20 ms of
nothing before the sample really starts. And the Sample Start parameters
is set to 0. On the Roland sampler they set the attack time to 1 which
removes this click without affecting too much the natural sound
attack. But on the EXS you have to set a higher attack to get rid of this
click and it affects the natural attack of the samples.

As I said before, the samples were recorded with up to 20ms at the
beginning and the sample start parameter is set to 0, so there is nothing
you can do to avoid this 20ms latency, moreover the attack time used
to remove the click at the beginning of the sample will increase this
sense of latency.
