Terms

Last updated: May 17, 2026. GigConverter is a hosted browser utility for converting legacy GigaStudio / GigaSampler files into WAV and SFZ packages. By using the service, you agree to these terms.

Authorized files only

You may use GigConverter only with files that you own or are otherwise authorized to use and convert. GigConverter does not grant rights in any third-party samples, performances, loops, instrument programs, brands, or host applications.

User promises

Before checkout and before conversion, you may be asked to confirm that you have the right to convert the selected file. By checking that box or using the converter, you represent that you own or are licensed to use and convert the file, that conversion is not prohibited by the applicable library license, that you will not bypass DRM or access controls, and that you will not redistribute converted samples unless you have permission.

No redistribution rights

Converted WAV, AIFF, SFZ, log, or package files remain subject to the original library's license. Do not sell, share, publish, or redistribute converted sample content unless the applicable license allows it.

No DRM circumvention

You may not use GigConverter to crack DRM, bypass encryption, defeat access controls, or unlock a library you are not authorized to use. The converter is designed to fail rather than bypass copy protection.

License purchase

A Single File pass grants one individual one conversion. An Unlimited subscription grants one individual ongoing conversions on up to 2 machines while the subscription is active. Licenses are not transferable, resellable, sublicensable, or a grant of rights to any third-party sample library.

Subscriptions and cancellation

Unlimited monthly and annual plans renew automatically until canceled. You can cancel future renewals through Stripe's customer billing tools or by contacting support from the purchase email. Canceling stops future renewals but does not automatically refund prior charges except as provided in the refund policy.

Conversion limits

The app attempts to extract recoverable PCM sample data and generate a practical SFZ mapping. Some encrypted, corrupted, compressed, incomplete, or vendor-specific .gig files may not convert. We do not promise perfect instrument recreation or native Cubase, Cubasis, Kontakt, HALion, or other proprietary preset output.

Trademarks and no affiliation

Cubase, Cubasis, HALion, Steinberg, Tascam, GigaStudio, GigaSampler, Kontakt, Sforzando, Decent Sampler, and other names may be trademarks of their respective owners. We use those names descriptively to explain file formats and compatibility targets. GigConverter is independent and is not endorsed by, sponsored by, or affiliated with those owners.

Payments and refunds

Payments are processed by Stripe. Refund requests are handled under the refund policy posted at /legal/refunds.

Misuse and termination

We may revoke or limit access if we believe a license is being shared, used to infringe rights, used to bypass technical protections, used for unauthorized redistribution, or used in a way that creates legal or operational risk for the service.

Indemnity

To the extent allowed by law, you agree to defend and hold GigConverter harmless from claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising from your files, your converted output, your breach of these terms, or your violation of a third party's rights.

No warranty

GigConverter is provided as-is. To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim implied warranties and are not responsible for lost files, lost projects, business interruption, or misuse of converted content. Always keep your original library files backed up.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
