Gigedit has a "replace all samples" function that works ok. There is one
issue though: Giga samples which are larger than 2 GB need to be split
into multiple files (.gig, .gx01, etc.). LinuxSampler can read those,
but Gigedit can't save them. So, if your samples happen to be larger
than 2 GB, you're out of luck.

I had this problem with the Sampletekk pianos I bought last month (White
Grand and Black Grand), and the only solution I could find was to get
hold of a copy of GigaStudio and run it on Windows :(
On the LinuxSampler forum I found a small program called updatebg5
that's supposed to work at least for the Black Grand, but for me it
crashed after processing the first 2 GB file...
