Just curious to hear what your secret weapons are. Can be anything, I'm looking for new, creative, off-kilter, inspiring software to check out. Atm I really like the reaktor ensembles by blinksonic, zynaptiq MORPH and slate and ash CYCLES.

any recommendations?

OK, try using Meldaproduction's MSoundfactory's wavetable setup. It gives you 8, 40, or up to 256 individual waves to place side by side. Each individual wave in the table can be clicked on to call up individually to reshape manually or even be replaced by some sample you import, and again reshaped if you want. Then I use an LFO at a slow rate to modulate the entire wave table, hold down a key for awhile and listen to it evolve. The results can get nice and weird, in my opinion. Meldaproduction is currently offering a 90-day trial of all its products.

I haven't seen a thread about Cycles here--did follow the one on VI-Control. Does it produce a variety of results?

Unfiltered Audio SpecOps, Fault, Sandman Pro, and Triad each can do some crazy stuff.

Melda's MTransformer, MCharacter, MGranularMB and MCombMB all get a lot of use from me in tearing stuff up.

Izotope's Trash 2 covers a lot of ground, and it is still damn effective.

DtBlkFx and Paul Stretch are not easy to customize, but they can make for unique results.

Tritik's Moodal is nice to augment sounds.

More reverbs and delays could be mentioned, but I'll stop there.

...though their site wasn't working when I just tried it a minute ago. (?)

EDIT: I checked this morning (4/14) and the site is working fine now.

If you want something a bit different that sounds great and is likely to spark your creativity, you can't go past Aparillo -

Heck yeah they are. I’ve used at least one in every track I’ve made for the past two months. MISHBY, the newest one, I think has more potential for use since it can be used as a basic distortion/bitcrusher, but it can go way beyond that.
