"After careful scientific experimentation, evaluation and data collection the Pigments application has proven to be quite a powerful and extensive application for deep investigations into new dimensions and possibilities within the domain of sound synthesis. Just as the particle accelerator is essential to atomic physics, Pigments is essential to the physic of advanced synthesis."
Nicky Romero
DJ / Producer (Britney Spears, David Guetta)
"I love how Pigments sounds so warm, and how easy it is to achieve the result you are looking for with your music. Great job on how the interface is done, all functions are easy to be found, even if you are new to this synthesizer. 5/5."

Alix Perez

"Pigments is my go to when I'm producing on the road, away from my hardware setup. It offers so much versatility and depth in one. The granular function and modelling tables are awesome and I can cover all ground between beautiful pads to aggressive, analogue sounding bass."

"We love it, there is a real detail and depth in its sound, the modulation assignment and routing system is one of the best we’ve used, making complex structures clear. Its potential is exciting, we’ve still got lots to discover."
Addison Groove
Producer
"It’s hard to imagine how Arturia could build on the previous Pigments, but the updates in V6 are spot on. The new Modal feature alone is giving me instant inspiration, especially if you’re into synthesising percussion. This is definitely the best-sounding soft synth I have, and it’s been my go-to ever since the original dropped."
Ttristana
Producer

"The Pigments soft synth from Arturia is really great, especially for sound design projects, and the interface is very intuitive. It is easy to modulate and customise sounds and it really feels like you can create any sound on it - from big pads to powerful deep bass sounds and beyond. One of the most exciting soft synthesizers, one that I am using more and more."
Sofie Birch
Producer
"I like how Arturias Pigments allow me to create high quality sounds that still have this noisy lo-fi vibe to them. The predesigned sounds have a lot of interesting layers and textures that connect with my taste in dusty woodwinds and rustling organic surfaces."
