[edit] Oops. Maybe not! I think I'll update to BFD 2 instead!: https://www.fxpansion.com/index.php?page=53&tab=148

Whoa! BFD2 looks amazing!! Wow, glad I didn't pull the trigger on the full version of AD. Either way I don't think you can do wrong.

AD is very good, we agree.
why aren't they producing a slew of add-ons? seems like they are in trouble?
hope not.
love to hear more sample done their way.

Free excellent-sounding amp sims from software magician Chris at Airwindows. Bad news: they're Mac-only. Cabinets will be coming later, probably in a few months, but I'm not sure if they'll be free as well. Anyhow, check out these babies by downloading them here:

Sorry, forgot to mention that. Yes, it is VST only and doesn't have it's own UI. It uses your host's UI.

Its a nice little plug, has 2 amps and 2 stomp boxes. They're working on a vintage suite, have no idea what it will be, but I'm going to guess it will be very small and have a microscopic memory footprint.

AD and BFD2 both sound great but AD is just so much nicer to use.

Ass for the add-ons they will come but they are a small company. I don't use it for loops as I have Stylus RMX and Ultrabeat for that but for realistic drums sounds it is great. I am enjoying the Retro Pak for 60s-70s sounds. The only ting I am really missing is a brush kit so I still use Battery 2 for that.
 
I started this little sticky and then completely abandon it. Sorry about that.

Here we go:

Bad ass little delay plug in that's good for all sorts of sound design fx as well as straight up delays. You lose a little gain with this plug so you'll have to follow up with Free G from Sonalksis to get the gain back. Here's the link to both.

Here's a whole bunch of instruments. Some good. Some bad. Some really bad. I use the 808 and the 909 rhythm machines a bit for electronic and for drum replacement. Helps to run it through some analog gear like a preamp for authenticity:

Though not free the demos can be used in these plugins off line on short loops and stuff. If you press the preview in Cubase the Hipno plugins go through a short second of noise then it works. I often use them to process loops or pads that are less than a minute long. Same goes for the Devastator plugin

I have more. Stay tuned.
 
Check out this reverb vst. Has a fair amount of parameters and can sound fairly decent. Don't think this has been mentioned yet in the thread but I do think it's relatively popular.

For the sake of contributing, here is a free vst website along with the ever so popular KVR. I'm sure there's some applicable effects and VI's on these sites but I'm sure there's plenty that you'd have a hard time throwing in the mix. But in the end, it depends on what sounds good to you at what time.

Good luck! Eric
 
I dont think this was mentioned yet:

Supposedly this site intends to let you set up and sell your own samples online, or give them away.
Theres a whole bunch of free kontakt 2 sample sets, and some of the are quite good and unique as well.

Check out the Kore Player if you haven't already. It's a nice little plugin and comes with 50 patches. Now they've added (for a limited time?) a free (broken link removed) "soundpack" which gives you 100 patches based on 12 of their add-on libraries.
