Gong Samples

Sonar X3 Series Bros!  How the heck are ya?
 
Saw a youtube video of a dude with a Paiste 80" gong - simply stunning. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYNKFJr8bSA)
 
So, I asked him via his page if he had any samples of that instrument - guessing that's going to be a dead air request.  Sigh.
 
So, you guys, can you give me a few recommendations of gong (BIG BEEEEG GONG) samples I can use?  Hoping for suppliers who have built programs for DimPro or Rapture, or perhaps a Native Instruments Komplete something or another.  Want that sucker to ring forever!
 
Did a Google Search for gong samples and am overwhelmed with stuff which is mostly underwhelming.... hoping the pros here can focus my search a bit.
 
Many Gracias!

    I have gong sounds in Battery 3 kits, and believe there is one present in the general midi specs, which would likely be then present in just about everybody's drum samples, in some fashion.

    I have some cool ones that I've used from Komplete 9 Ultimate, I think they're in Kontakt's factory orchestral percussion set.

    I cheat. I transpose really good cymbal samples downward.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    If you have the full Kontakt, you can get some great samples for about 6 British pounds.  I think Sampleism also has other formats besides Kontakt.  I use Vienna Symphonic but that's a lot of money just for a gong.
