Sounds nice. It has limitations, but I think it still can be useful..

In reply to Febbie Ivaaden (Febbs!). You are, indeed, correct! Just a prompt, choose to install only this instrument, and you can run it fine with Kontakt Player 7.

Aloha!
Precision has only 2 playable octaves. In Reaper called from B0 to B2 (from 23 to 47 in midi notes). And the strumming keyswitches by default can be found around G4 (midi note 70). With this limitation it can’t handle all imaginable chords. I guess in the free version you can access only a limited amount of strings. The instrument plays only the chords which are phisically possible on the provided strings.

I’m having trouble with strumming. I figured out how to make it work in Stratus Free (it was quite straightforward!), but following the same steps in Precision Free (account for the change in octave) results in no output whatsoever.

In reply to sreiche. Actually it tells you to install the Full Kontakt, but in reality its just a prompt. You can still install the library nonetheless. It happened aswell with me on Shreddage 3 Stratus Free.

I had no problem with the setup and since I have a very old PC I was happy it is compatible with Kontakt player 6. It is as addictive as Stratus. But just a tip: after registering Precision free on your Impact soundworks account you can find a good sale for the full version on your account’s “My deals” section. But I hope this time they will also give a nice additional coupon for the full version like they did for Stratus. I already bought Stratus full version absolutely love it.

Well, registered it within Native Access (Kontakt Player 7 installed) but when I want to install the Shreddage Free library, Access tells me to install Kontakt (not player). So not really for Player yet!
