EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Does anyone have any experience using Giga samples on the exs24mkII? 
I'm purchasing the exs and I want to purchase a few giga libraries. How well 
do they work with the exs? Do they need conversion first, or can I read them 
directly? Will I have access to all of the Giga features without reprogramming 
the instruments?

Not meant as a personal attack, but: doesn't anybody ever _read_ the 
messages posted here?  The subject of giga-conversion seems to come 
up at least once a week, generating at least 10 replies, rehashing 
the same issues over and over again.  If you do a search for 'giga' 
in the group's archives, I bet you find more answers than you like 
:-).

Check out www.gmane.org which is a free news server that helps
view regular mailing lists as a newsgroup. The main benefit of
this is it groups all messages in the same thread together, and
it also has a very fast search engine.

The news server is news.gmane.org and this group is under
gmane.comp.audio.emagic.exs ... Gmane also encrypts all of our
email addresses over there to prevent any spammers from
harvesting our emails (which is very common on newsgroups). Or
you can view it from the web:
http://news.gmane.org/thread.php?group=gmane.comp.audio.emagic.exs

Right now only the most recent 1700 messages are over there but
before too long we'll have the entire archive imported if anyone
wants to go back and download all of the messages into a
newsgroup reader.

I love this! Thank you!!!

Hello !
Giga samples sound great in the EXS. What you have to do first is to convert those 
samples to EXS format.
How to do that ?? O.K : First you have to open an EXS instrument in one of your Audio 
insruments. Than you'll have to select " Giga convert under the options menu within 
the EXS main menu ( Top right ). After doing that just follow the instructions given.
Good luck and have fun !!
