Some of you may know the really great and highly usable electric pianos that were released some years ago by Greg Sullivan. They were / are free, but they are formatted for Gigasampler, which has gone completely out of fashion. It's really a shame that these great, small libraries are in essence no longer usable due to this.

Could someone help to convert them to either .sfz or .sf2 format? If you got access to a tool like Extreme Sample Converter, Chickensys, an older version of Kontakt (K3) or any comparable tool you could help to convert them.

Having them in .sfz (or .sf2) format would resurrect those great sounds and make them accessible again to the audio community, since almost anyone could then use them with a free player like the great Sforzando. Let's not allow these great sounds to get lost in the abyss of the world wide web, let's revive them!

Extreme Sample Converter did so easily. Haven't checked them, but should be fine. Got some place to put them? ~200 MB as zip of both formats for all three types...

EDIT:
Loaded all the SF2 into sampler, and SFZ into Sforzando. All seems fine in cursory exam...
