    Thanks for this. I was aware of Emergence and Pianoverb. But I live Fogpad, Driftmaker and Expanse. My other favourite's recently have been from Freakshow Industries. Mishby is my favourite. It's indescribably strange. The interface is a work of art. I think you'll like it. Audiomodern have some greate free plugins too. Filterstep is a 'motion filter' that's quite creative. Gatelab brings some creative modular-like gate sequencing into the DAW too. Audiothing filterjam is a multiband resonant filter, a few years old now, but I still like it.

  • @jeffagoddard
    @jeffagoddard 2 года назад +7

    You’re absolutely right! This is the best 😁 There are so many plugins and VSTs out there, but who needs another reverb, compressor or saturation knob. It’s the chaotic and different plugins that get my attention and evidence of a truly creative developer. In fact, I think all the major vendors have similar high quality traditional effects that come with your DAW or bundle. They’ve nailed it. Now if you want a different sound, you need to venture into the unusual. Well done!

    Awesome! You might also want to check out the Chow Kick, a simple but amazing kick synthesiser.

    Emergence was exactly what I've been looking for. This is a swift kick in the arse to Ableton and their version of a Granular sampler.

    Awesome, a few I haven't tried yet here.
    TOP TIP: chuck your plugins into VCV (you'll need to buy the Host module but that's very reasonably priced). Now randomly modulate everything using modular tricks. Emergence goes absolutely batshit doing this!
    My recommendation for a messed up free plugin that nobody has heard of would be R-mem - it's almost unusable on a track but makes really weird noises instantly. 👍
