There's a little bit of confusion with it---a pop-up asks you to acknowledge that it's for the full version of Kontakt but it is, indeed, a Kontakt Player library with a provided serial number for Native Access.
Sonokinetic is running its 12 Days of Christmas event again this year. You have to sign up for it before it starts. They usually give away one or two Kontakt Player libraries during this event:
This needs to be highlighted to get to a broader audiance. I plan to creat a separate thread to highligh this along with the $13 Alicas Keys. Both this are remarkable offerings!!
I will add that the choir works on the free Kontakt Player. Note that it may take awhile to get it. I have been waiting at least for 15 minutes but it has not shown up yet in Access. YMMV
Have you ever noticed there are no lines to a bathroom at a water park?
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Mine was there immediatley. You may have to search for it ... otherwise it can be a bit hidden if you have a lot.
Here's a Kontakt Player freebie from Audiobro and as they say: "SILVER is a 'living library' and we will be updating with more instruments and samples as time goes by."
Until April 30th: Native Instruments Play Series-Utopia is being offered to existing KVR Account members and new sign-ups if you enter a drawing to win one of three versions of Komplete (Standard, Ultimate, and Ultimate Collector's Edition). If you're an existing account holder, login before you fill out the very short form. In the Need-To-Know section, this statement was made: "Licenses are issued manually, so please allow for up to 48 hours after entry to receive yours." I received my Native Access serial within 30 minutes. Utopia normally sells for $49.
this looked promising however the download password protection scheme failed me. The PULSE application would not accept the serial number that was provided. Waste of time.... Register with PULSE then Register with WESTWOOD and still no technical support to get an answer.
Edit.. Nevermind... Download our free ROOTS libraries with Native Access. Add the serial key (found in your purchase email) to Native Access to download and register the library in one step. Do not attempt to download via Pulse – the serial key will not be recognised!

This is interesting. I have had no problems with Pulse thus far. Note that I did not DL Roots as Swam just updated there solo strings and they sound great. Couple that with my other string libraries and I have better sounding strings then Roots, however others may find Roots very good.

Works with free version of Kontact 7. Mario, can I advise you to take a little closer look at this. When I got this under my fingers I was more than impressed. Three violos making a wall of sound. The video describes the concept and highlights that a future series of free "Roots Editions" will be coming.
In fact, this is the perfect example of why this thread is invaluable. Free Sounds, Free Kontact Player and a peek at the world of computer generate music beyond BIAB. All one needs is a midi keyboard to get introduced to this capability.
Oh, and Mario, by the way, I will take a closer look at Swam. thanks.
