Is there a help file that comes with the demo version of either the extreme 
sample converter or Awave studio?

  You can use awave as a demo to convert, you just won't get a multiple 
instrument to completely conver; for example if you have a giga file with 3 
instruments in it, say a bass, piano and drum set, you can only convert one of 
those 3.  I never seen more than 1 instrument per giga file however, so don't 
know if this is their nature or what, and don't see a problem with converting.  
As long as you do some preconversion stuff in awave studio's settings, you 
won't have any loss in sound quality.  Hint, you can use awave to convert from 
giga to sf2, and then use sf2 patcher to combine multiple sound fonts...

  Hope this helps, D!J!X!

    I heard someone on this list mension something about a free softwhere that 
converts giga to SF2. Has anyone ever used this softwhere? How much of the 
quality is lost after the conversion?
