There’s nothing about it that stands out particularly, but if you’re using Pigments to create granular soundscapes or ambient plucks, then you’ll be thankful it’s here.Īrturia also added 63 new wavetables, 67 new samples and 36 new noise types, plus a pile of new presets. Personally I think it’s an essential effect, and I’m shocked Arturia hasn’t added one until now.
Oh, then of course there’s the shimmer reverb. The addition of jitter, scale and new decimator options really let you fine tune the exact flavor of digital destruction you’re looking for. The more exciting changes are to the Bit Crusher effect (as opposed to the one built into the sample engine). It’s a welcome addition, but definitely not something that you’d miss too dearly if it quietly disappeared. Though, this is not something that Pigments was exactly lacking before. Or just crank the volume on it and hit it with the hottest signal you can (though make sure to turn down the master volume or you'll risk blowing out your ears) to get some crunchy saturation. Crank the resonance and turn on keyboard tracking, and you can transform simple white noise into a delicate plucky key sound with a subtle crackle. Rather than using it as you would any other lowpass filter, the MS-20 begs to be run at extremes. The MS-20 filter might seem unnecessary considering Pigments already had 10 different filter options, many with multiple modes, but it does bring something special to the table.
