I won’t put a link to examples because the demos will have reaching for a sick bag.įinally, if you are into pads, pointed me in the direction of Luftrum’s Lunaris. The main sounds designer is Kevin Schroeder, who has some pretty amazing credits Kevin Schroeder - IMDb. PS: Given the sort of trashy old fashioned electronic / trance stuff I tend to, my goto is DUNE 3.

Acoustic guitar sounds have now been centred on the ‘Nylon Sky’ add on to Omnisphere. So, I’d tick your box for Pigments, but maybe put 'best in class '.Īlso, of course, Spectrasonics essentially focussed all keyboard sounds in Keyscape, and bass sounds in Trilian. Pigments obviously has a lot of other synthesis types but for granular it also does a really cool thing that quanta doesn’t I don’t think, which is it can cycle through 6 samples in one slot for granular, so you can get these cool mixes of samples on top of each other that is different than just layering multiple granular layers. Effortlessly build, animate, customize, and refine complex patches unlike anything you’ve ever heard. You can almost do a track from some Pigments patches. Pigments 3 raises the bar for VST instruments, surpassing the capabilities of premium hardware synths and plugins alike, making your wildest sonic fantasy a full-color reality. Pigments is much more ‘edgy’ (‘modern’?), whereas if you look at the user list for Omnisphere is largely about film scoring. I think Pigments is a great synth to have - I love it -, and not all that much overlaps the massive range of sound in Omnisphere. I don’t think there is a ‘best’, as most synths try and target at a niche. Omnisphre, so I’m bad at saying the best. The latest update to Arturias innovative Pigments soft synth brings a raft of new features, tweaks and fixes as well as a special offer on new purchases.
