For the most part, the company’s instruments, effects and presets are easy to use and surprisingly close to the synths and devices they attempt to emulate.

Among other additions, the 3.5 update also added a new cross-modulation feature that makes it possible to dial in results that range from weird to full-out sonic freakouts.

At 50 percent off, you can get the company’s original virtual synth for $99, instead of $199. The highlight of the sale is Arturia’s Pigments software. Until February 17th, the company has discounted individual software instruments, effects and presets by 50 percent. From bombastic basses to evolving pads to molten leads, this soft synth has you covered.Īrturia Pigments lets you run up to two sound engines - a triple-oscillator virtual-analog engine, a detailed granular synthesis engine, a harmonic synth engine, or a complex wavetable engine with morphing and import - in parallel for impossibly fat sounds with off-the-charts depth, dimensionality, and harmonic richness.Arturia has launched a new promotion to help those who are just starting their musical journey. Multiple soundbanks let you easily navigate an arsenal of presets and hundreds of wavetables, transcending the limits of genre through inventive and inspiring cross-engine modulation. And analog synthesis remains a staple of contemporary music making.Ĭombining modern wavetable synthesis, granular synthesis, harmonic synthesis, and analog modeling in one powerful, easy-to-use soft synth, Pigments is a synthesis platform that gives you the best of all worlds. Harmonic additive synthesis manipulates partials for next-level sound design. Granular synthesis is capable of creating otherworldly synth sounds by deconstructing sampled material.

Wavetable synths are used to create many of the cutting-edge sounds you hear in today’s blockbuster movies, television series, and hit records. Wavetable, analog, granular, and harmonic engines: a quadruple threat
