Hi Nick

. . . . who make the best VSTs? . . . .

That is one of the unanswerable questions - it all depends on what instruments/effects you want.

Hi Nick,

Magix has Independence which contains many excellent instruments. They were giving away the basic version recently. I obtained the intermediate version containing 12GB of instruments that came free with Samplitude Music Studio a couple of years ago. The program can be used as a plugin or standalone. I can give you a detailed list of the instruments if you want. Below are the main instrument groups that I have:

01 Acoustic Drum Kits     
02 Electronic Drum Kits   
03 Acoustic Basses        
04 Electric Basses        
05 Acoustic Guitars       
06 Electric Guitars       
07 Pianos - Keys          
08 Ethno & Tonal Percussion
09 World Percussion       
10 Industrial Percussion  
11 Pop Brass Section      
12 Saxophones             
13 Pipe Organ (NDB)       
14 Synthesizers           
15 Arpeggiator            
16 Groove Instruments     
17 Arranger               
18 Step Sequencer

Note that Magix has a separate site for all of its music programs.
