Synth1 VST is a monster! Anything similar??

Hey everyone, just getting started making electronic music, no hardware yet, everything is currently being made using LMMS DAW and a keyboard and mouse. I have a couple of midi controllers on order, and I will have my eyes out for used synths now. I was wondering if anyone could recommend some great free VSTs apart from Synth 1 which I feel is an absolute monster of a VST. Is there anything similar to Synth 1 out there that is as vast in the way it can be used? Looking in the realm of very cheap or free. Thanks.

the Tyrell VST from U-He

I'll definitely second Tyrell. TAL Noisemaker is also quite good, notwithstanding the slightly awkward tabbed interface.

I'm a big fan of most of Native Instruments' stuff and would absolutely recommend looking at their free Komplete Start bundle which includes a modest selection of very nice instruments and effects.

VCV Rack, while not a VST per se, is a killer virtual modular, and it does have a "bridge" plugin for routing midi and audio to/from your DAW (kind of roundabout, but functional).

By the way, bedroomproducersblog.com is a fin resource for free and cheap audio software.
