Giga Studio added what was called Gigapulse impulses and round robin capabilities to avoid the machinegun effect that comes from triggering the same sample on the same note repeatedly, among other things. If you don't already own a copy of Giga, I don't know how you would install it. Make sure that if you buy it second hand, you get all the serial numbers and unlock codes. As I recall, you don't use a challenge response thing from a website. But I don't remember exactly what you do have to do. It's been so long.

There used to be a guy on-list called Clinton Miller who used it a lot, but I haven't seen him around for a long while. Best wishes.

I think giga was discontinued, but i'm wondering if an older version of it was accessible? Thanks.
