Arturia pigments plugin presets and patches

Arturias new VSTI plugin wavetable synthesizer

Pigments is their latest software instrument synthesizer from 2018.
A modern version of a hybrid analog and wavetable synth with extensive modulation capabilities and a great interface.

The interface

The interface is unique and user friendly. The modulation system is like no other new synth. All in all a clever GUI design.

Oscillators

The synth has 2 engines that can be set to analog, sample, or wavetable. The analog engine can have up to 3 old-style analog oscillators and it can import user wavetables and supports morphing.

Filters

The filters are the filters from V Collection plus some new interesting ones. 

Envelopes

The synth has 3 envelopes that can be assigned to control any of the controllable parameters.

Modulation

Modulation is one of the synthesizer's strongest points. Clever modulation design GUI that animates the modulation sources and destinations.
