A few years ago everyone would have been recommending Crystal but it seems to get forgotten these days - still good though:

Closer to Absynth than The Mangle and a forerunner of Omnisphere.

I've got this and... my word... it's DEEP. I don't think I've ever seen so much tweakability in any plug. I'm yet to wrap my head around it. Daunting to say the least, but I know it's going to be killer once I find the time.

Highly recommended, but bear in mind development has been slow. The author recently confirmed he's working on it again after a few months of silence though. It's worth more than £20 even in its current state to me though. It makes the method incredibly accessible. Can be played like a 'normal' synth once you load your sounds into it, and the drag and drop modulation system is incredibly intuitive, similar to Massive's. The Mangle's combination of power and simplicity is unmatched to my mind.

Mach V 3 has some granular abilities too ( amongst many other things )

Is it just me, or is there very few granular vsts out there?
