•Select a folder in the Sample Window where you want the imported samples to go and then choose

Import samples.

•Use the browsing window that comes up to navigate to the .wav files you want to import.

•Select the waves and click on the Open button. They will show up in the folder you selected in the wave pool.

You can also right-click on a folder in the Sample Window and choose to import samples or directories from there as well. Alternatively you can simply drag and drop wave files or folders full of wave files directly from the Windows desktop into the Sample Window.

Import sample directory: [Alt] + [E] + [Y]

This works similarly to the Import samples command, but here you choose a folder full of wave files.

Alternatively, you can drag and drop folders full of wave files directly from the Windows desktop into the Sample Window. Using this method, you can import more than one directory at once.

You can also right-click anywhere in the Sample Window and choose Import directory from the context menu.

Export all sample folders: [Alt] + [E] + [A]

This will export all the samples in a .gig file to standard wave files on your hard drive. Any loop points in the samples will be exported intact. This is handy if you need to do audio editing of a bunch of the samples in an instrument. You can later use the Replace All command to batch replace the samples back into a .gig file.

You should first create an empty folder on the hard drive where you want the samples to go. Then choose Export all sample folders and browse to the folder you created. The folders and samples will be named and organized the same way they are in the .gig file.

Convert wave pool format: [Alt] + [E] + [F]

This handy feature allows you to batch convert ALL the samples in a .gig file to various bit rates, compression settings and channel conversion settings.
