Deep scanning can be a little 'dangerous' depending on the VST you store in your folders. In the best case, it's very long; in the worst, it freezes startup... (thanks to the 'start-from-crash' box!) Waves plugs are good, easy, and not too CPU greedy. I like them. But some of them (and I don't have them all!!!) don't open at all, or don't work, or make Usine crash when you just want to delete it from your patch. Take care... I should make a list for you, yes I know, but I'm a lazy bad guy! MaxxVolume, by example, has no GUI and crash when deleting the module.

You can also activate 'allow deep scan' in the setup.

There are two or three other, like - Waves Doubler +- 4% CPU - AudioEase Altiverb %CPU depending on the IR ... And a great Wave-one that unfortunately does not work in Usine : MaxxVolume, which is a good and quick low lever enhancer. And I really do not think I could make them with patches!

But for a good compressor you need a lot of CPU.
So now we can turn the discussion into something else: 'what are your/our favorites plugs that we can make easily with a patch?' the next challenge for add-ons

here some i find , not so bad :
vst :
cat delay = 0.7 filtermate = 1.6% tobybear helios = 1,8% northpole = 1,2% pushtec = 1% readelay = less than 1 % reaeq = 0,45% reafir 0,15% ring thing = 1,20% ddmf IIeq =1,30% freeverbToo = 2,5% fyltox ( from my friend novaflash ) = 0,4 to 1,5 %
VSTI
smallQoo = less than 1%

Remember, altouth, that it will make your sound... But just for fun, why not some low CPU? This is a vast question, Yan, since a lot of free plugins are both greedy and poor, specially with VSTi... On a cheap laptop, my choice would be: almost no FX, very simple VSTi (use Kontakt with good home made samples) and simple clean sound. Or trash?!!!
