I own the full Symtohm Meloman, but there's a performance edition that's free now!
Really nice filters!

www.tweakbench.com

some of those are alright

Symptohm Melohman PE (the free edition) is awesome. (it should have made my list).

If you have just that and Crystal VST you can do a heck of a lot, synth wise.

Also forgot DBlue Glitch.

The Digitalfishphones plugins are also really good (the developer Sascha Eversmeier has since been employed by Magix and develops plugins for Samplitude/Sequoia, so the only drawback is the digitalfishphones plugins have not been developed for a while and will not be developed any further) - Dominion, Endorphin, Blockfish and Spitfish (de-esser) in particular are useful.

Cool - useful info for VSTs to try out... Small request: put pc or mac at the top of each list!
