It lets you apply pitch shifting to the delay taps for creating some really cool effects. Read more Product of the Week: Empirical Labs Arousor Rev 3.
Speaking of effects, Version 3 also brings with it several new effects for its already stocked effects section. In the filter department, Pigments 3 debuts a new Low Pass filter and now allows you to route filters to the various effects buses. The overview video on the Arturia site describes them as ranging from “mellow and bell-like to more harsh and buggy.”
With Pigments 3, Arturia beefed up the Wavetable Engine with 64 new wavetables. The Utility Engine, which includes an additional oscillator and noise sample layers, can be used with any sound to make it richer or used on its own as a sound source. The Harmonic Engine is additive synthesis–based and brings in even more sonic variety. These augment the three carried over from Pigments 2: Wavetable, Sample and Granular, and Virtual Analog. Two new synthesis engines have been added: the Harmonic Engine and the Utility Engine. This synth, which comes in plug-in and standalone formats, offers a robust feature set-expanded in some significant ways in Pigments 3-and a variety of synth engines to mix and match. I can only say that this is just maybe one of the most "all-good" (GUI, presets, preset browser, sound and sound engines, visualization, tutorials.) synths out there.Arturia describes the newly released Pigments 3 as a “Polychrome Software Synthesizer,” meaning, according to the simple concept, that Pigments produces a wide range of synthesis colors.Īs soon as I heard some of the demos Arturia posted on the Pigments 3 Resource Page, and then got a chance to play it, it all made sense. And as you are doing presets for yourself the included bank bundle (which I bought separately for the intro prize while I was lucky to get the upgrade with no cost) might not be that tempting too. That wont give you any useful info Nick, sorry about that, but I think your knowledge in sound design is so far away from mine I just wont be able to give any worthy advise on this. Aliens landed ? Where ? What ? Feeling: lost in space. Not that GREAT, One-of-a-kind GUI like Pigments but: at home.īut really: "ugly" for Hive 2.1 ? Biotek 2 is very special (love the GUI or hate it), I agree with MSoundFactory (IF you call that a GUI and not a visualized command line.) and for me the REAL contrast is just Massive X. Now: the only other synth that comes to my mind with same impression is: Hive 2.1. I just tried to find the right words to impress how "friendly" the GUI appeals on me, just feeling home and comfortable. Click to expand.Great how different peoples impressions are.
