Not only free, it’s also open source. This is a very good drawbar emulation, with onboard FX, nice saturation, and the speaker leslie emulation. Perfect for emulating gospel organ and rock organ. And check the “NHL” preset!
As all the other plugins in this list are 32 bit, it could be nice to compile a 64 bit version. ** EDIT** => here is the 64 bit version for Windows : download Azr3 B3 organ VST 64 bit and the sources

Blue3, of course, comes with a glorious simulation of the classic 122 & 147 rotary speakers, but we've taken that a step further with a custom 'high power' version that simulates a hot-rodded rotary cabinet that was previously only available to top touring pros. While very similar to the classic, it has a sound all it's own. For something a little different, check out the RA200 cabinet. Based on a rare cabinet, it's a unique take on a rotary speaker with 3 spinning treble speakers and 2-15' woofers. And if you're not into the rotary sound, Blue3 also comes with a simulation of a British guitar amp cabinet with 4 - 12' speakers. You can also remove the diffusers from the top horn for a brighter, more pulsing kind of sound. And we didn't forget to give you the option to stop the rotors in front, or give you the Memphis sound by disconnecting the bottom rotor motor. And again, players can be pretty picky so Blue3 goes out of the way to give you as much control as you want, including slow/fast speeds and speed up/down times for the top and bottom rotor and more. Every engineer has his special way of micing a rotary and Blue3 has every option covered. Close mic it for an intense and pulsing sound, or further away for something much smoother. Spread them out for a dreamy stereo spread or close together for a mono output. And Blue3 lets you choose between dynamic and condenser mics separately for the horn and bass rotors.
