I'm trying to make some logos for Komplete Kontrol at the moment for plugins but it isn't easy working out the font or finding a good substitute for an obscure one. If you know a font used by a particular plugin please post it here, over time hopefully we can build up a list. Right now trying to work out the font for BigTick Rhino - is it just Arial?

There are font identification websites that may help:
https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
http://www.identifont.com/
Those are my favorites. If you post clear screenshots it would help for people that don't have the plugin.
Also note that some plugins don't always use a known typeface. Logos, particularly, are often custom drawn.
You can also ask the designers. https://twitter.com/lancethackeray has said that Serum contains Calibri and Myriad, but there are other fonts used all over the product. The logo looks custom drawn.
I don't use Komplete Kontrol but I did something similar for Hedascripts track templates. I ended up taking screenshots of the synth in a way that represented it best. Often it's the logo but for iconic ones it'd be an easily recognizable feature (e.g., the Wild XY in Biotek, a bee on a honeycomb for Hive, a burning piano for Omnisphere, a zebra for... Zebra).
