There are a TON of freeware & shareware synths (vst & AU) out there- a good google search can get you on the right track- By the way, almost all of them require some kind of tweaking (the idea being you have to work to make your own "personal" sounds). This is the joy (ha! ha!) of synthesis. Reason & Reaktor have alot of good sounding synths & patches right out of the box (this is especially true of Reaktor) but they cost more than a few bucks & you will still find yourself doing quite a bit of tweaking to get THAT SOUND you're often looking for.
If you are looking for freeware & shareware synths check out hitsquad.com & samplepoolz.com. Don't be afraid to get in there & really screw up some of your synth patches in garageband either - you may be surprised...some of my best sounds are the result of mistakes. There are also a multitude of books & online tutorials regarding synthesis that are quite a bit of help.
