The biggest inclusion this time around is the new Utility Engine. With that you can introduce movement or randomization to your synth patch, chord progression, or melody.Īrturia Pigments 3 is the second major update in just three years. Finally, the Seq panel contains a 16-step sequencer/arpeggiator. There are 18 in total, covering the full range of possibilities from EQ/filters, to dynamics, time-based effects, modulation, and saturation.

Here you can combine any three of the included effects. Its purpose is to add a bit of depth and texture through a sub oscillator and a couple layers of noise. Pigments 3 also introduces a new utility engine which runs alongside whichever two primary engines you choose. You can shape the overall sound in the Synth panel using two different sound engines, each of which can run in Analogue, Wavetable, Sample, or the brand new Harmonic mode. The instrument itself breaks down into three main panels: Synth, FX, and Seq. Loading up one of these presets also gives a great first impression of Pigments as a whole the quality is as good as it gets, the sounds are rich and textured, and Arturia excels at unique synthesizers as much as they do with emulations. A massive collection of 1200 presets means you can explore endless possibilities-regardless of how deep your synthesis knowledge goes. Nearly anything is possible, from acoustic sounding plucks to jagged EDM bass lines, and washy choral pads to granular percussive jabs. Pigments gets its name from its vast sonic palette.
