Awesome here are some more for your list:

SURGE: Free, Open/Source
https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/

PENDULATE:  Very weird, awesome free synth. From Eventide who doesn't make anything that isn't awesome.

VITAL:  The best free synth there is. If you can afford to slide the author some coins, do so, but there's a free version and it's full featured.

I really highly recommend the free Labs instruments from Spitfire Audio.  There are loads of them and they are free and very decent.

I would second the spit fire I downloaded the free ones last month and have been really impressed with the sounds

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

This is a yamaha C7 piano, quite standard, but if find it's the best sounding one amongst free pianos. Sometimes I try something else but it ends going always back to this one.
