Description: A versatile software synthesizer.
A very powerful wavetable virtual analog synthesizer is Pigments and will change the way you make music. Turning the spark of imagination into sound is the most important, exciting part of making music. Pigments makes this process natural, intuitive and vibrant.
Imagine Sound, Then Create It – Pigments offers the best elements ever found in a software instrument, allowing you to create innovative, immersive and deep sounds. Pigments allows you to fully express your creativity in a way that has never been possible in a software tool.
Pigments has a dual audio engine that lets you mix virtual analog and wavetable waveform oscillators to create the perfect starting point for your patch. You can even modify the wave tables or import your own. What you get next is up to you. Experiment with the 3 Envelopes, 3 LFOs, and 3 Function Oscillators. Assign modulators to bring your sound to life and bring it to life. Add controlled or completely unexpected random changes to any parameter with the Turing Probability Generator. Pass the signal through 2 filters with any combination of iconic analog filters or modern format filters. Treat your patch with exciting modern effects such as wavefolder and multi-filter or vintage studio reverb, delay and EQ effects.
Modulation – With its unique interface, Pigments doesn’t just simplify complex modulations, it makes them extremely simple. This is a new approach to creating sounds.
Crafting a Masterpiece – For 20 years we’ve been analyzing, emulating and refining the most iconic synths ever made. Working with Robert Moog, Cameron Jones and many other industry legends, we have earned our reputation for creating world-class tools. We turned the music industry upside down with the release of our premium, affordable MiniBrute analog hardware synthesizer.
Pigments combines our passion for vintage FM and analog sound with modern wavetable synthesis to create what we think is the best software synthesizer.

What has happened to the download link? I can’t get past the 5-second countdown in the upper-right corner anymore, most of the time it doesn’t show up at all. Also, that extra AdFly page shows up almost every time now with its own 5-second countdown that leads to nothing.
