The local weekly in my town just reviewed an album made entirely from free VST and energyXT.
Here's the link:

Scroll down to the review of the Dubble Helix album. I've heard that some of the songs even get regular local airplay. Go figure.

Very interesting. I'm sure it happens all th time nowadays. You gotta wonder what other musicians and producers reactions are to this though. Are they hardcore music fans and ingenious producers because they have the skills to get great sounds out of free gear? I'm sure the traditionalists are gonna they suck because everyone is having access to the freebies and potentially having similar sounds...which is just not true.
Any old school producers here that have a comment on this? It would be interesting.
By the way, my setup consists of Energy Xt and all freebies as well(not including a few hardware synths and samplers that I hardly use anymore,a midi controller, and a mixer...but besides that its all freeeeee!)

I think there should be a forum or at least a thread with a contest for songs made with just freeware(except maybe just one payware-probably the host). That would put a twist on things.

Confusius used to say : If you cann´t make good music with freeware, then commercial plugs won´t help you either !

Screw freeware. Lets see what you can do with Impulse Tracker and 4k worth of samples!
