Listen, you dirty cheapskates. Don't let the official release of the Blue Cat Audio Freeware VST bundle spoil you. Just because Blue Cat wants to turn you all soft with this collection of quality, eminently usable and totally free VST plugins for Mac and PC doesn't mean you should start expecting this kinda thing from just any plugin developer.

I just know that once you get a chance to actually use the following free plugs, its gonna be harder to get you to pay for software effects that it is to get molasses to win an uphill footrace in January against Usain Bolt:

• Blue Cat's Chorus
• Blue Cat's Digital Peak Meter
• Blue Cat's Flanger
• Blue Cat's FreqAnalyst
• Blue Cat's Gain Suite
• Blue Cat's Phaser
• Blue Cat's Stereo Chorus
• Blue Cat's Stereo Flanger
• Blue Cat's Triple EQ

These plugins, though free, are fully featured: they've got support for full parameter automation and MIDI interface control, and even come with operator's manuals in PDF and customizable skins. So download and enjoy the bundle for free, but DON'T GET USED TO IT.
