Here is the SYNTH ANATOMY list of the best freeware drum machine/rompler/sampler/synthesizer plugins for PC & Mac including sample-based & synthesis based instruments.

Best Synths For Mac

Togu Audio Line TAL-Noisemaker. Two oscillators, two LFOs and three envelopes make TAL. Search results showing free instrument VST Plugins, VST3 Plugins, Audio Units Plugins (AU), AAX Plugins and Rack Extension Plugins for Windows and MacOS. The results are sorted by most popular with KVR members (Data from MyKVR 'Favorites' Group). A '˜taster' version of u-he's Zebra2 synth, Zebralette has one oscillator (to Zebra2's two), two LFOs, multi-stage envelope and on board effects, but that's just what it says on the website!

Many classic Synthesizers or effects plugins are available in a free or commercial form. If you look at the beats section with free drum machines or drum synths, it will be much smaller. Here you can find free drum machine/instrument plugins that are based on samples or even on pure synthesis.

The vintage trend can also be clearly seen here. Many plugins are based on sounds from vintage drum machines like the Roland TR-808/TR-909.

Even if the selection is smaller, I have picked the best freeware drum machine plugins available in 2020 for you. This selection includes only plugins that are compatible with PC & Mac with 32-bit and 64-bit systems! (Updated July 2020)
