In ReCycle, export as SF2 + MIDI file.
Put the SF2 into your "sampler instruments" folder (or a subdirectory of
that). The EXS will now recognize the SF2 in its instrument pulldown. When
you select the SF2, the EXS will convert it to its own format. I recommend a
"move audiofiles" after that (as by default they are going into "soundfont
samples" inside your Logic directory). Now you can also safely delete the
source SF2 file.
To play the loop back, drag the MIDI file you exported onto the appropriate
EXS track.

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.
