A Perfect Plugin for Virtual Instruments
Spitfire LABS is my main plugin for keyboard. It provides a wide range of virtual instruments that I use for both atmospheric sounds and lead or melodic parts. It’s an incredibly comprehensive plugin: both the free instruments and the paid LABS+ expansions deliver stunning sound quality, which is why I always choose it whenever I need realistic and inspiring tones.
Awesome free plugin
It’s almost perfect sampler instrument pack, that gives you literally everything. All the instruments are high quality and captured almost perfectly. The only problem with it is that it is usually everything but not what you want. And also, captured instrument aren’t very customisable, which is quite a big limitation.
Preferred Settings + Usage:

Free. Powerful. YOU NEED.
If you do any kind of MIDI anything, you need Spitfire Audio LABS. They have so many free libraries up, you can do so much with them, if you don't avail yourself of their free stuff, you're doing it wrong. Frozen Strings, Scary Strings, Hand Bells, Moon Guitar... Those are the backbone of my song "Rain Under the Waves." And let me tell you, they sound phenomenal.
Loads of sounds, all for free.
Fantastic samples
Though the samples are idiosyncratic and only offer limited modulation options within the plugin, these are still some of the most unique sounds you can find anywhere, and all are very high quality recordings.
