I'm usually not big on saturation plugins, since most of them will just make things sound wooly, midrangey and distorted even at low settings. But then I found the CM version of Sonimus Satson in my vstplugins dir. I don't know how long it's been sitting there -- it's been years since I bought a copy of Computer Music -- but it actually sounds quite nice. It smooths out the high end in a pleasing way and doesn't add a ton of "character" (which in analog emulation plugin lingo means "make my music sound like boomy garbage"). So if you're looking for a way of making brittle/thin samples sounding a little warmer, this one might be worth a look.
