well, if you were willing to purchase gigasampler sample libraries,
and spend a little time making sure your system configuration was all
correct, i have little doubt that you could get LinuxSampler to do
what you want. its notably lighter-weight for a sample-playback engine
than most others that handle GS formats.

however, given that gigasampler has died as a library format, and
given that sound as if you don't believe your system configuration
could possibly have any issues, i'm not sure that this solution will
work for you.

yep, precisely.
