They also added a granular mode that enabled samples to become granular synth patches with a host of parameter controls such as density, envelopes, size and randomization. The sample engine has six sample slots and six playback modes. Pigments 2 added a third sound generator type (a sample engine) and hundreds of samples, and you could import samples of your own.
It also provided excellent modulation options, an arpeggiator and a very flexible step sequencer. The original version was excellent and included two synth engines types (analog and wavetable) that could be mixed in various ways using one of each engine type or two of either type, lots of filter options and a baker’s dozen of excellent FX.
Pigments is a virtual analog/digital synthesizer/sampler with a number of sound engines and FX. And if you don’t have Pigments, version 3 is currently half price with the Spectrum Sound Pack thrown in as a welcome gift. Also, if you already have any Pigments version, there is a great deal during the intro period on a set of 500 presets called the Spectrum Sound Pack – for $20.
If you are a drummer or guitarist, you may be excused, but anyone creating music with virtual instruments should take a look and listen.įirst, Pigments 3 is free if you already own Pigments or Pigments 2. And if you just ignored the announcement you might want to think again – Pigments 3 is a significant update to Pigments 2 which was significantly expanded from the original Pigments. You’d have to have rather poor eyesight to have missed the announcement of Pigments 3 since it’s been a banner at the top of the several Gearspace pages since its release a few days ago.
