Free VSTs

Voxengo SPAN - I use it as my analyzer on my master
Softube Saturation Knob - Legit saturation VST

Those are really the only 2 free VST plugins I use

Can you link to a copy of the Saturation plugin? Their site is making me download 1.2GB of shit just to install it.

that's what it does -___-

it downloads an installer that holds all the plugins, and even if you choose just the saturation plug it still takes up a gig of room

so stupid, i actually recently uninstalled it

That's ridiculous. I mean, what's in all that space? It can't be good.

Tal Chorus for sure!!! Use it all the time, great on a send just to thicken up a sound and give it some stereo width! So nice!!!

All the Tal free bits are dope and i like the Tal V2 (paid) which is a Juno 60 Emulator that does a very decent job. The chorus is taken from the V2 chorus section anyway.

If you haven't played with this one, definitely have a go. It's an odd looking Russian compressor.. try it on bass sounds.

Another one... It's not free but is very cheap... And defo adds a lot of nice weight and saturation... it's the butt of a few jokes but i personally think using it in moderation can add a lot to productions.

I'm talking of course about Sausage Fattener: http://www.dadalife.com/sausage-fattener/
