Ooh there's a bunch, you've got the Oscar, which is emulated in an awesome fashion by GForce in form of ImpOscar.. And finally we have a great VCS 3 emulation by XILS, it's super yummy but kinda pricey.. The Oddity might be worth mentioning too, also by Gforce - which is of course emulating the Arp Oddessy.. Then you have a few shitty, cheap ones that actually sounds alot better when emulated, like The Poly-850 by Synapse that I would definently recommend for Dubstep tones.. Also, the Nord isn't really a vintage synth, but alot of people are sleeping on the fact that DiscoDSP Discovery is based on it.

This one right here is a badboy for a free vst. It will take some time to learn it tho.

Image-Line came out with this one not too long ago, but I never had a chance to mess with it. It's modeled after the Polivoks, which is a rare Soviet synth.

I kind of learned how to re-sample right off the bat because that was one of the main features of it. Ultimately I got rid of it because the sequencer was kinda shit. It never played stuff back correctly.
