What are some of your favorite plugins you use consistently/and or feel you can't live without?

Seing as Logic is still lacking on the instant 'warp' type capability of something like Live - i think 'Phatmatik Pro' is pretty essential to me.
Its basically like having Recycle as a VST/AU plugin.
This means instant 'beat matching' and - with a bit of 'tweaking' - being able to use virtually any loop in any song.
Very handy !!

Elemental Audio Firium and Eqium – very versatile and fine sounding EQs
PSP Mix Pack – nice compressors, better than any included in Logic
PSP Lexicon 42 and 84 delays
SIR – free convolution reverb

Oops that last one gave the game away

I think that's what the wink was for

I think we should be a bit charitable to those stuck in the Logic/PC limbo - as long as they don't start getting all clever with their PC only freebies

Bazza

Oh yes, EXS24 in answer to the question. In fact I find that I can pretty much get any sound I want from the logic bundle (but then my needs aren't that demanding). Having said that, I'm looking forward to trying these extras that are rumoured to be bundled with Logic 7, Drum Machine, Guitar amp sim and VA - interesting!

Equium and Firium, by Elemental Audio Systems. Great equalizers.

PSP MixPack by PSP Audioware. Very versatile plugins, with an excellent documentation.

MultiDynamics, by Wave Arts. A great multiband dynamics processor, can compress and expand.

Fish Fillets (free!) from Digital Fish Phones

Soundhack Spectral Shapers.

Anwida Soft CX1V. Fine sounding compressor.

Bomb Factory are pretty essential to me. I love the Pulteq EQs and the Fairchild Compressors, though the guitar tuner is pretty handy, too.

Sony Oxford Inflator is also essential for mastering.
