I wish every VST had such an easy way to learn them. Not only that, Arturia added its own Jup-8 V4’s (Roland Jupiter-6) low-pass filter and either filter 1 or 2 now can be routed to either FX bus A or B.Įxtra points to Arturia for adding in-app tutorials plus the video tutorials on their website. The Chorus Jun-6 (Roland Juno-6 emulation) and the BL-20 Flanger (Bel BF-20) can bring ease to the “vintage sound lovers” in times of modern sound design.

Although the amount of noises is quite large there’s no option to import your own noise samples, which could make things a lot more fun.Ħ4 wavetables were included to make a total of 164 in its library plus the possibility of importing your own.Ī multi-band compressor and a pitched delay are new features of the effects section.

The new Utility engine counts with a fourth oscillator and 2 sample-based noise generators. You can also customise odd and even harmonics and morph from A to B of the wide variety of filter shapes. The Harmonic engine is without a doubt the biggest feature of the upgrade, allowing users to control a combination of sine waves adding up to 512 partials for richer sounds.

Something you won’t see every day on a VST is a combination of 3 oscillators analog-style engine, wavetable, sample playback with granular synthesis capabilities and now with the latest upgrade the harmonic engine for additive synthesis and a third utility engine. For the last 6 months, Pigments took over my sound design workflow as the possibilities are truly limitless and version 3 is just blowing my mind. It is definitely one of the most versatile VST’s in the market.

First of all, I have to say that Arturia’s Pigments 3 was love at first sight!
