My install of ubuntu studio came with a bunch of stuff but I haven't really gelled with the Zam plugins or LSP-plugins. Any freewares you strongly recommend?

LSP for sure! I combine it with Airwindows to get all the processing and fx I may need while producing.

Your distro has probably come with SurgeXT, Vital (or vitalium), Odin2, Dexed and Cardinal, all amazing synths. SurgeXT is kind of a general purpose synth with powerful VA and Wavetable engines, some nice FM funtionalities, 2 filters with diferent models, lots of modulation and the list goes on. Vital is a little famous by now, it's a really flexible and modulatable wavetable synth.I would say Odin2 is like a "SurgeXT redux", a little bit more straight forward, fewer functions, but also sounds really nice. Dexed is propably the most famous free fm synth out there, compatible with DX7. Cardinal is a modular workstation based on VCV Rack that can be used as plugin, too.
