Let’s groove :
1. AZR3 by Rumpelrausch
Ample Guitar M Lite II. This little plugin surprised me quite a bit, mainly because it’s an acoustic. It is also one of the best free VST Plugins for vocals. T Rack Classic EQ. This is another free product from ikmultimedia, this time in a 6 band EQ from T Racks. Its a nice sounding EQ on most audio material but I think it’s best suited to acoustic guitars and rock vocals. I would say it’s one of the best free vocal VST plugins 2018 brought us. VST 4 FREE - Free Audio Plug-ins and Archives. Free VST downloads: Digital Acoustic (Nylon strings guitar by TED) - Spicy Guitar (Physically modelled acoustic guitar by Keolab) - ABPL II (Precision. FREE VST PLUGINS Audio Tools. Free music production software (Multitracks) for sound editing or manipulation for download. Size 66.3 MB Sonar is a. Sonar (64-bit) hangs while trying to auto detect the 64-bit versions, but the 32-bit are knocking my socks off, and run under both Sonar x64 and x86, with or without jBridge. I managed to trick Sonar into loading the 64-bit dlls, but as soon as you close a project, they hang again. Other than that, these plugins rival anything I've ever paid for. Definitely one of the best free VST plugins you ought to have in your VST rig! 33) MX Project T. Rex 606 Modelled after the vintage Roland TR-606 drum machine of yore, The T.REX 606 is a beast in its own right with some added bells and whistles.
Not only free, it’s also open source.
This is a very good drawbar emulation, with onboard FX, nice saturation, and the speaker leslie emulation. Perfect for emulating gospel organ and rock organ. And check the “NHL” preset!

3. NubiPlus by fxPointAudio

Nubi Plus VSTi come with a VST FX for adding the Leslie effect : Spinner VST. The two make a super groovy combo, and gives you this nice Hammond B3 organ sound.
She’s just like you and me, but she’s homeless:
