NE5: Question; converting RAR files for sound manager

Post by colour lights »

Hey Everyone,

Super happy to finally join the Nord family with my Nord Electro 5D (it's been a long time coming.) With that being said, I am extremely new to anything and everything Nord. I was particularly excited to see the use of the Nord Sound Manager and the different patches I can download from other creators to use in my music.

I've recently stubbled on a lead sound pack from nordpresets.com that I really liked. After buying it, the pack downloaded as a .rar file and I quickly found out that Sound Manager does not accept that file type. I then tried using a program, The Unarchiver, on my mac to extract what I could and possibly reconvert the file to something that would work. Then by my luck all it extracted was a png image of the product.

With that being said, can anyone point me in the right direction of how to go about possibly getting this .rar file into Sound Manager so I can use it? Regarding nordpresets.com, I have yet to find any instructions on how to do this. Waiting to hear from the owner about this issue as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
