See what's new in Pigments 7
Explore the next chapter in Pigments’ evolution, where a powerful new Modal engine meets enhanced filters, modulators, and creative tools for unprecedented sound design freedom.
NEW: Play View
Harnesses a redesigned Play View and dynamic visual feedback so you can see sound in motion. Waveforms, envelopes, filters, and modulation all animate in real time, helping you refine patches quickly, understand what’s happening in the signal path, and stay focused on the music.
NEW: Filters
Explore the brand new aggressive Filter Rage to dial in powerful rumbling textures via feedback loop distortion, experiment with the Filter Ripple for intense phase shifts, and utilize the Reverb Filter to add fat, unique timbre modifications perfect for bass design.
NEW: CORRODER Effect
Push your sound further with Corroder, a modulation-driven erosion effect. From FM-tinged edges and filtered grain to wide, driven distortion, it delivers controlled grit while preserving the character of your dry signal.
IMPROVED: Modulators
Elevate expression by assigning different modulation values per voice, adding deeper randomness, triggering audio-driven envelope followers, and sculpting curves with the revamped Function V2.Scan through samples mid-playback for time-stretching atmospheres, randomize grain playback for each note, and continuously adjust grain size for fluid, evolving textures.
Built to be played
It’s never been quicker—and more fun—to get the sound you need. From the updated Play Mode and vibrant color-coded workflow to quicker navigation and a Light/Dark theme option, Pigments 6 is tailor-made for the modern music producer.
Thousands of sounds
Pigments comes with over 1700 presets, 50 wavetables, 30 samples, and more, plus you can curate your own library of sounds from hundreds of sound banks (updated monthly) crafted by world-renowned producers, artists, and sound designers. Explore sounds directly in Pigments’ preset browser or the online store and create a sound library that works for you.
