Sort of like the other thread about filters I figured this could be useful.

These are the ones I like:

I cant find it anywhere but there was one I used to have which ran tube distortion through vowel filters to make some well sick noises. I'll try get hold of the dll.

I still love the Grease Tube. One of the first plugs I'll install after a fresh install. Real simple but sounds fucking ace.
