OWINGS MILLS, MD — Impact Soundworks launched today a major free update to Shreddage 2: Absolute Electric Guitar, their flagship virtual instrument for the Native Instruments Kontakt platform.

New customers can purchase the library for the discounted price of $99 through July 28, 2014.
Shreddage 2 is among the most popular products in the Impact Soundworks catalog, providing a highly-realistic, virtual electric guitar well-suited for rock and metal music.

The library includes a free copy of ReValver HPse, a versatile amp plugin by Peavey Electronics.
Impact Soundworks was founded in 2007 by award-winning composers Andrew Aversa and Wilbert Roget, II with the goal of creating innovative, affordable and unique sample libraries designed with composers in mind.
