Hmm, sorry to beat this to death, but I don't think so when it comes to 
Giga importing. Everything sample related is already on my sample drive, 
with an alias to the Sampler Instruments folder inside Logic. This works 
perfectly for EXS24 instruments and samples. But when I delete the original 
"DLS-Giga Samples" folder and create an alias to identically named folder 
on the sample drive, Logic ignores the alias and creates a new original in 
the Logic folder during the Giga conversion process. The converted files 
again end up in the Logic folder on my system drive and have to be manually 
moved to the sample drive.  Am I still missing something?
