Check for long file names...anything longer than 31 letters doesn't get 
recognized. Just shorten them...be careful not to name them something too 
simple. I had the problem of certain songs reverting instruments to the first file 
they encountered if there was more than one with the same name. i.e. don't 
have two exs instruments named "flutes'. At one point in my exs plug in 
settings (which is how I choose to store my faves) I came across five violins 
pointing to the same file. Another possibility to keep an eye out for is folder 
depth, You don't want the giga deeper than four files in from the sampler inst 
folder. Good luck and remember not all performance traits get properly 
converted. I just spent three days remapping a good portion of "Advanced 
Orchestra"!  Learn that exs editor, it'll come in handy until more of these 
libraries come out native to exs.

good luck
