Your Favorite Vst`s

Im looking for all kinds of VST plugins.
Maybe you have a favorite when dealing with either synths ,solo`s ,melodies ,drumloops?

I dont want every little VST thing posted here.

I guess there is no need to mention any plugin from Waves?
Only dare to look on their webpage if you’re planning to spent lots of $$ for a plugin (L3 Limiter = USD$600).

these are for free, I use them for 2 years. this site is each time updated (sorry my englisch :)

and try this one:

http://y0u-file.narod.ru - soviet rare and real synthesizers as VSTi
everyone from eastern block can remember them. :w00t:

Unfotunatly the DL does not work… :(

My favorite vsti (a great drum-synth):

Drumatic 3

That’s strange, because few weeks ago I download them. Possibly it’s a server error… I don’t know

narod.ru is a crap russian hosting, it filter ip’s and limit traffic for non-russian ones, or doesn’t connect to such at all.

and btw, those emulators of soviet synths doesn’t sound like the originals. i own “ritm-2”, and i should say, it’s a simple synth, and it got the energy in the hardware only, it’s pointless to emulate it.

that russian page is hella slow, but it works for me.
seems like they did not filter us fellow germans ;)
however the synths already look like cheap synthedit sludge. of course one should not value the VSTi by their GUI, but if they really are synthedit-made, then it’s usually low quality sound for high CPU usage.
trying to download…

as far as plugin is free to download it shouldnt be much problem :)
