Don't worry about it.  They have exs-24 program files on their website.  
  All you need to do is convert the Giga files when you receive the  
library and then replace the converted .exs files with the Project SAM  
.exs files.  All the programming has been done for you.  They sound  
fantastic.  Actually all three are excellent (Horns, Trombones, and  
Trumpets).

One thing to note as well, they were planning a 'native' package with  
the horns where they would ship the converted samples with both .exs  
and Kontakt versions on the CD (probably not the GIGA files though).   
So, if you don't need the GIGA files, these may actually be ready.  I  
believe that there will be a small crossgrade fee ($40-50???) if you  
get the GIGA version and want to replace it with the native version.

Also, Soundsonline.com has a sale on right now where you may be able to  
get them cheaper.  Details are at Northern Sounds forums under the  
EastWest section.  Check here at

HTH,

I found that a bunch of the GIGA programming didn't come over very well 
such as some of the crossfades and such.  Using the Project SAM exs-24 
files works very well.

LOL. Yes, I got over 10 emails about it last night. ;-) I'm using my racked up points to get 
$100 off, though, which brings the total to around $30 with shipping. I love 
SoundsOnline.com.

Thanks for the info, guys.
