"Pigments is an absolute pleasure to use and never feels confusing or intimidating thanks to its excellent interface.

Hispasonic

On Pigments

"It is a synthesizer in which Arturia has wanted to concentrate a large number of resources and get out of the most established areas. It is not a synthesizer that intimidates its use, but in spite of offering a very recognizable global structure, it floods with details in each element that go out of the most traveled and allow to accumulate many simultaneous actions."
