![]() We have found one first go through featured below: Something we also like is the polyphonic sequencer/arpeggiator, which is full of trigger options and settings that mean it’s totally possible to fire up Pigments in standalone mode and make a whole piece, just as you would with a full synth workstation or modular rig. Best of all, there are “heads-up” graphical displays that show you what’s happening under the hood of even the most complex patch. But all of this is also graphical and neatly organized. ![]() ![]() And for modulation, you have tons of choices in envelopes, modulation shapes, and even function generators and randomization sources. You can modulate anything with anything, Arturia says – which sounds about right. It will truly interesting to see whether the music production community comes to the same conclusion when the reviews starts to pop up. It is claimed to be a 21st century instrument that will become the go-to choice for all producers, sound designers, and synth-fans alike thanks to its extraordinary features and tempting price. It is not a small promise Arturia makes when stating that while Pigments can sound like other synths, no other synth can sound like Pigments. It has three envelopes, three LFOs, three function generators, two filters and assignable modulators for shaping the sound. Pigments has a twin audio engine that allows you to mix virtual analog and wavetable oscillators. To us it is easy to see how the knowledge Arturia has been assembling over the past 20 years in synth emulations now has made them take the step with Pigments. So make sure to explore both our coverage of Pigments and of the Buchla. Further down in this article you will also get an in-depth review of the Buchla which was one of the main highlights in last years release of the V Collection. Now they are at it again, but in a completely different direction, with their first software synthesizer that is not a clone, and dubbed Pigments. Well known for their software emulations of classic synthesizers, like the Minimoog, ARP 2600 and Yamaha CS-80, they some years ago started building hardware synthesizers like the Minibrute and Microbrute. ![]() Arturia has taken another interesting step when it comes to making music production gear. ![]()
