Anyone putting libraries in specific folders? Or is everyone placing files in one large folder?

Thanks....

The reason I ask is that Giga says to put everything in one large folder. Seems rather ridiculous to me.

I have found it useful to put everything in one folder, with a lot of descriptive sub-folders within. For instance, I\'ll have all of my samples sitting in D:\\GIGS\\ with sub folders for Strings, Percussion, Brass (even with sub folders under those to help group the instruments further). More often than not I\'ll also rename most of my .gig files to include phrases or words detailing the characteristics of the sample. It really saves me a lot of time when I\'m looking for the right sample to use.
