Atlantis is a unique synthesizer VSTi. It has nearly unlimited possibilities for creating new and exciting sounds! It is also a powerful effects module that can be used to process other audio.

3 true stereo morphing oscilators, with independant width, phase, spread, chorus, tuning, volume, envelope and panning feed into a pair of filters (with your standard algorithms and a lot of unique new favorites), a shaper (distortions and beyond), and a simple room modelling multitap filtered delay system with another pair of selectable filters. The routing of the filters and shaper can also be switched into a variety of configurations for further flexibility.

All the standard waveforms you would expect (sin, square, triangle, saw, noise)- and you can also import ANY waveform you like! Simply add a .wav file with the waveform you want to hear to the Data Folder (as specified in the Config Dialog) - stereo or mono, any samplerate or bitdepth you like, and Atlantis will let you use it for oscilators and LFOs. Samples are upsampled into very high resolution wavetables.

Every slider parameter can be controlled by ANY modulator. LFOs, Envelopes, MIDI Control Data, the current note, velocity, follower, or combinations of them can be used to modulate your sounds into expressive organic creations previously unheard by human ears.

Used to use filterbank by Wok a lot( http://music.service-1.de/html/filterbank.html )
only its is synthedit so/and it sucks cpu(don’t know if thats synthedit is the cause), now trying not to use it, or just 1 a track.

Things i like to use are:

drumatic

bootsy stuff, specially epicverb

edit:also using voxengo plugins a lot, their free stuff sound so nice i might buy some of their fx stuff, also they have a latency compensation plugin i use alot, because some(most) plugin doesnt seem to report latency, it works great.

really too much to mention, i think you cant have enough flavour to choose from(i have about 750 fx vst says the renoise screen ), but then you have to watch out not to drown everything in it

hi,

not sure if this has been posted before but this is a nice effect:

Klanglabs Backman

rewinds the input sound in realtime. its basicly one fader for blending from forward to backward play. pretty usefull for livejamming.

they have a couple of other plugins as well that i havn’t checked yet…

Oh, i don’t know if it’s already been mentioned, but perhaps the most popular free VST is ‘glitch’ http://illformed.org/plugins/glitch/

@mrblitz000

Hey Mr Blitz!! Check [u][u][i][i][b]this[/b][/i][/i][/u][/u] out!!!

I hadn’t spotted these posts before. Cheers guys!

Something for Linux users. Copypasted straight from KVR:

Togu Audio Line has updated TAL-Reverb-2 to version 1.60, which features a slightly improved algorithm (smoother sound, reduced hearable modulation).

Also, the developer of kxstudio has compiled / ported all JUCE-based TAL plugins as 32- and 64-bit for Linux. They can be download from SourceForge.

Included plug-ins:

• TAl-Dub-3.
• TAL-NoiseMaker.
• TAL-Filter.
• TAL-Filter-2.
• TAL-Reverb.
• TAL-Reverb-2.

I like Chrystal

[gentleclockdivider]

Eveything that sounds good

[fladd]

Here is my take on it (my most used ones):

Sampler
Shortcircuit 1.1.2 (I mainly used that for drums, before Renoise)
SFZ (mainly for SF2)

Synths
Synth 1 (subtractive)
TAL Noisemaker (subtractive, great for basslines, there is also a Linux port!)
INTRO (wavetable, great for leads, pads)
Minimogue (VA and LUXUS)
TAL Baseline
MDA VSTi (mainly the Piano, Linux version available!)

Effects
Fishfilets (mostly BLOCKFISH, but also SPITFISH)
CamelCrusher
Kjaerhus Classic (especially the Chorus)

That’s it for now, I might have missed some, so I might edit this post later again.

ymVST hasn’t been mentioned i think, a free VSTi based on Atari sounds: http://www.preromanbritain.com/ymvst/

[mudpeople]

Discovered these earlier today;

RMS1 Virtual Analogue Synthesizer VSTi

VMP1 Virtual Analogue Synthesizer VSTi

this one’s a demo but sounds great;

JP6K

ive used 1.0 and loved it, 2.0 even more;
http://www.acid-milch-und-honig.de/instruments/transistordrums2.zip

Also a demo, fully functional monophonic, though, with a step seq too;

[Se4ever (Gotthelf)]

Is there an easy VST synth like Synth1, that grants you the posibility to make automationenvelopes of some kind?

7 Inch Nails, the mega gabber kick distortion freeware plugin.

I think this is one of the best free amp sims ive come across over the years. Its an Engl Powerball emulation. I use an Engl Thunder50 live and have been trying to get a close approximation for practicing and writing at home.

http://www.redwirez.com/free1960g12m25s.jsp

This is also the tightest free impulse response pack ive found too, (and is also very like the marshall cab im using) with a ton of different mic types and distances etc.
[[you have to give an email address to get a link code, but i did it and everything seems safe enough]]

http://www.redwirez.com/bigbox.jsp

(tells you what the filenames mean regarding mic positions)

http://www.voxengo.com/group/free-vst-plugins/

If you havnt got it, get Boogex to load up your impulse response file of choice.
[[Tip: Voxengo is a nice sounding guitar amp in its own right, but to disable the built-in amp sim, just turn the “Tone”, “Drive”, Dynamics" and “Phase” all the way down.

Then Fucking Shred Till Your Fingers Fucking Bleed!!!
