I started a post here a wee while ago asking if anyone would be interested in the naturalstudio ns_congas as a direct download. For some reason I can't find that post - maybe it was deleted? [EDIT: Found it! http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=148967]

Anyway, I thought I'd post an announcement here because I know a few of you were interested. The ns_congas are finally available as a direct download - 209MB download extracting to 651MB. It's a full set of Giovanni Hidalgo "Galaxy" congas. 2000 samples, 48Khz/24bit, Kontakt 2 and HALion presets included.

More info here: http://www.naturalstudio.co.uk/ns_congas.html

Cheers,

Douglas.

yes, yes, yes, yes, etc.

If you check out the grey banner on the right (at http://www.naturalstudio.co.uk/ns_congas.html) you'll see a list of the articulations. Also, listening to the demos will give you a good idea of what's possible.

Hello Douglas,

I gladly have ordered ns_congas.
After hearing the demos, I guess it must be fantastic

Just a question, I could not find anything on your site about how one will receive the product.
I suppose/guess you will send an email with some download-links, but it would be nice to be informed.
Beside of the notification payment by protx I received no further information.
Patiently waiting for the download-link

with best regards

Teacue,

Thanks for your order. I'm having intermittent problems with the shopping cart software at the moment. Once payment is succesful, it should automatically send you an e-mail with the download link. However, for some rreason it's not doing that. Did you have to log in again after completing the payment process?

Anyway, I got a note of your order at this end and have manually sent you out the link. Let me know how you get on!

Cheers,

Douglas.

Thanks for your answer Douglas.
In the meantime I received your mail and I could download ns._congas

Yes I had to log in after payment and it just told me that the ordering was successfully completed.

Sorry but now I have another problem

I am not able to unpack the file, it says that it has been compressed with an unknown method.
I tried Winzip 9 and Winrar 3.51.

The zip file is 214.647 KB

Glad you got the file - make sure you have the new newest version of WinZip and you should be fine.

Hello Douglas,
thanks again.
Yes, indeed, using the last Winzip version solved it

Sorry for the noise

I quickly tried ns_conga in Kontakt 2.
I am really amazed how natural and beautifull it sounds!

Thanks a lot for making it available.
Best regards
