Hi,
Waves plugins have a very nice free bundle.
'Kind-of annoying process to install, but,
IMO the IR reverbs are awesome (for free)!!

Vital - a fantastic free synth, many put it on the league of Pigments and Serum.

I use vital more and more.

On my previous computer I couldn’t because it needs quite some CPU, but on my new computer I can.

Also I select the lowest oversampling setting.

Do you guys use any other free stuff that is not listed here?

Chowdhury DSP have free, open source plugins. He’s even collaborated on an actual hardware pedal (not free of course!).

I’m using mostly two sources:

(7) Free VST Plugins | Facebook
Music Software and Audio Plugin Deals 2025 - (search or look for FREEBIES)

Ok. Do you recommend any free plugin? (Not listed in this thread)

I checked but I mostly used paid plugins, however I use Vital a lot (but already mentioned) and Raum, which is free as part of the Native Instrument Komplete (Free?) bundles.
