Four Tet's Software Plugins and VSTs
On Four Tet's Bandcamp page for his new album, New Energy, there's a note at the bottom that says, "Created on a laptop computer using Ableton Live software to control and mix VST plugins as well as manipulations of audio recordings. Plugins used for sound generation include Omnisphere, Kontakt, Dexed and** Arturia V Collection**. "
Four Tet refers to Syntrillium's Cool Edit Pro as "one of the greatest pieces of software ever made " at 3:30 of this YouTube video from the Red Bull Music Academy New York 2013 series.
@34:10 Kieran Hebden says the bass sound was done in Spectrasonics' Omnisphere.
In this article Keiran says, "I really like Audiomulch, it's one on my favourite bits of software. It's so stripped-down, and you can really abuse it. Reason just makes trance music, and you're not really allowed to piss around with it too much and everything's got this horrible reverbed sound, and I kind of hate it — Audiomulch is my preferred version of that idea(...)"

"Brainworx XL is the limiter at the end of every track. I just use it to bring the level up really. I try to avoid compression."
Mentioned in this July 2003 Sound on Sound interview.
Hebden's approach to working with computers is very much based on destructive processing and manual editing, and he tends not to use plug-in effects: "I only use about two plug-ins. I use the TC Native EQ and the Waves C1 compressor quite a lot, and some reverbs, but not much. Everyone's records end up sounding the same, so I really haven't explored plug-ins at all."
