I would add Bluecats free amp to the GuitarAmp list. I have a few other paid guitar amp sims but I've been really impressed with this free one:

Update10 is done! See Page1...Lots of plugins have been added + lists have been expanded!
Don't forget to keep sharing you experiences on which plugins suiting best for pop rock and lovesongs (I'll give my best to analyse as much as I can but of course help is always needed)

I think LAME is included with Audacity now, so you may want to edit the part on the first page about it.

Same topic with some good suggestions here: viewtopic.php?t=580626\t
I would also delete
- Tyrell (the ancestor to Vital, which made Tyrell pointless)...some of these other syths are probably outdated as well
- 4Front pianos, which are ancient and IMO poor by today's standards
- most of what's under the "Vocals Simulations" which aren't vocal simulations. I would start with Clare Solo, which is a very nice free solo voice...DSK Choir and VIrgin choir are more synth-sounding choir sounds, but could work if that's what you want (or is good enough in a mix). Delay lama is funny to try once, but I would never recommend it for any serious work.
- DSK Brass is IMO poor. I would try the brass sections in the free orchestral libraries, like Palette, VSCO, or Spitfire BBCSO Discovery.
PS: to make it possible to run 32-bit plugins in 64-bit hosts you do not need a 32-bit to 64-bit Adapter Tool. At least not for any 32-bit plugin I've ever tried in any DAW, and that's more than a few.

A couple of glaring omissions - GR-8 is a better free synth than most of the others listed and Zampler is a great free sample player.
