Description: A multifaceted software synthesizer.
A very powerful wavetable virtual analog synthesizer is Pigments and it 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, exciting and deep sounds. Pigments allows you to fully express your creativity in a way that has never been possible before in a software tool.
Pigments has a dual audio engine that allows you to mix virtual analog and wavetable waveforms to create the perfect starting point for your patch. You can even modify the wavetables or import your own. What you get next is up to you. Experiment with 3 envelopes, 3 LFOs and 3 function oscillators. Assign modulators to spice up your sound 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. Enhance your patch with exciting modern effects like wavefolder and multifilter or vintage studio effects like reverbs, delays and EQs.
Modulation – Thanks to its unique interface, Pigments not only simplifies complex modulations, but makes them extremely simple. This is a new approach to creating sounds.
Masterpiece Creation – For 20 years, we’ve analyzed, emulated, and refined the most iconic synths ever made. Working with Robert Moog, Cameron Jones and many other industry legends, we have built our reputation for building world-class instruments. We’ve turned the music industry on its head 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 believe to be the best software synthesizer.
