Arturia Pigments - the intuitive review
Review from MusicRadar
MusicRadar
“Pigments is still the synth that crams in the power and flexibility, but presents it to you in a very easy to use way. One of the best sound design tools around.”
MusicTech
“Controls are laid out logically and sensibly, visualisations are intuitive and clear, and interactions are obvious and consistent.”

“What I do like about Pigments is that for all its depth, it has some real character. I think it’s the gold standard as far as navigating the UI. And add this fun sequencer and audio input, and it has something that can be lacking in its rivals – immediacy.”
Alex Reid
“Pigments wavetable engine allows you to fine-tune the kind of sound you want, adding a new level of detail for sound design.”
Nu-Trix The Synth Guy
“It's one of the most powerful sampler/synthesizer you can find in the market. It's massively fun to play with!”
AudioNewsRoom
“With version 5, Arturia Pigments can rightly claim its spot as one of the most deep and versatile software synthesizers available.”
Digital Notes
“Arturia's Pigments Synth is very flexible and versatile thanks to the combination of classic analog synth and wavetable technology. It offers many possibilities for changing the sound, but the user interface remains very clear. The sound ranges from gentle to absolutely fat.”

“As a sound designer’s dream, Pigments 5 is amazing. It will do an enormous variety of things, and the user interface is clean and easy to navigate (...). I’ve reviewed at least one high-end synth recently (naming no names) whose user interface was not nearly as friendly as the interface in Pigments. Once you learn your way around, it’s quite slick.”
Bonedo
“Pigments causes a sensation.
They’ve put a lot of thoughts and expertise in software and hardware synth development to create a graphically well thought out interface. Rarely it was possible before to create or reroute such complex modulations so quickly, rarely was the introduction to the topic of wavetable synthesizers so easy. Pigments is the synthesizer for beginners. The surface is exemplary large and clear, the parameters are not hidden.”

“Pigments 5 continues to set the standard for sonic excellence, opening doors to limitless possibilities in music production and sound design”
Davide Puxeddu
“I use Pigments in almost all my work, both for sound design and music production. I love the different audio engines, the studio quality effects, and the huge modulation possibilities. The creative results you can get with Pigments are infinite!”
Anton Anru
one of the most powerful synths - Pigments. Now it's version 5. They added new sequencer and oscillators features, more wavetables and samples, the ability to pass and process external audio, and other improvements.
