I'm trying really hard to get my head around that....
So, let me see if I understand correctly:
Once the Akai samples folder is clear, you put the aiffs along 
with the exs instruments in the sampler instruments folder?
Is that what you mean?
Or if not, where do you put both of them - Do they need to be in a 
certain place for file recognition?

Sorry to be so slow!!!
