Anyone using R.A.W. Universal Groove Kit with Stylus RMX?

I just received my R.A.W. [REX-Apple Loops-WAV] Universal Groove Kit (by Sonic Reality), and I'm wanting to get all of its REX files into Stylus RMX via the SAGE Converter.  Problem is, in the SAGE Converter tutorial, Eric [Persing] says there's a limit of "61 files" per suite when importing REX files.  Well, with R.A.W., we're talking in excess of 5000 loops.
 
When I look in the individual folders (05GE Kick Snare Patterns 3, 02PRC Misc Percussion, etc.), I notice that the greatest number of files any folder contains is... (you guessed it) 61.  So I thought hey maybe Sonic Reality is giving me the hint that I should be importing each folder individually instead of dragging the big, main "R.A.W. REX Edition" folder onto the Converter.  Problem is, there's one solitary folder that exceeds the 61 files - "01DRM Vinyl Grooves", which has 72 files.  So that shoots down my "hint" theory.  In a way, I'm glad, since I wouldn't want that many suites (106) cluttering up my RMX browser.  I'd rather have a single, main "R.A.W." heading, which I can go into if I choose.
 
So, before I start trying things, I wanted to see if anyone here might have suggestions on how to go about importing and organizing this [or any other large REX] library for use within RMX.
 
Thanks.

    Okay, figured it out.  I assumed that since the SAGE Converter wouldn't accept anything over 61 REX files in a folder, it most certainly wouldn't take the entire overarching "R.A.W. REX Edition" folder (5000 REX loops), so i never even tried it.  Well, as it turns out, it will accept a huge master folder - it's the subfolders that directly contain the REX files that are limited to 61.  So the only thing I had to do was to split the aforementioned 72-file "01DRM Vinyl Grooves" folder into two (part 1 and part 2), and SAGE went happily on its way, converting.
     
    Only glitch is, at the end I got a message saying "There was a problem and the SAGE Converter has stopped working".  But I'm seeing all the newly created folders in my User Libraries folder on the hard drive, so, I'll just have to go into RMX and see whether the loops are all functioning correctly.  I'll post the results...

    Well, all seems fine.
     
    Please disperse.  Nothing to see here.

    Hey Huffy,
    Many months after, what do you think about this pack ? Are the loops flexible enough and usable ?
