Light Mode: Opt for a less nocturnal vibe and enjoy a sleek off-white redesign. Play Mode: Enjoy a simplified overview of your sound with stripped-back modules and hands-on macros. New graphical interface: Easier to navigate than ever, Still, it's a cool addition, and the new utility stuff means I don't need to sacrifice an oscillator to play a transient anymore, or waste it for analog to get a sub oscillator out, legit useful stuff whenever I'm designing a sound in Pigments.Arturia has unveiled Pigments 4, the latest version of their modern multi-engine soft synth, featuring massive changes to the instrument’s layout and enhancements to almost every module, this comprehensive update will be available for free to existing users and accompanied by a limited-time offer for new buyers, including 3 exclusive sound banks. Maybe it being free is also why I don't try too hard to learn the new engine, but I haven't really had much interest in harmonic mangling personally. I'm fairly sure it's a free update to anyone who owns it. The cherry on top of a well balanced cake - I got this for free, seeing as I was a Pigments owner already.
It's kinda similar to NI's Prism if you're familiar with it.
There's a lot of new presets that make use of it and I notice it's really nice for bell-type sounds, but of course it can be good for anything else. The harmonic engine is a very cool idea on paper, and it might be in execution too, but whenever I try to use it, it is admittedly hard to get a nice tone out of it. This update basically adds a new engine - the harmonics engine, and also a new Utility tab, featuring two noise oscillators (they're playing back a sample so you can totally just use regular samples), as well as a simple sub oscillator.
I'll keep this one short - if you need more detail or thoughts, everything from my Pigments 2 review carries over to this, 100%.
