Pulse for Pigments

Pulse for Pigments

I am very proud to present you my new preset bank for Arturia's Pigments synthesizer: Pulse.

"In physics, a pulse is a generic term describing a single disturbance that moves through a transmission medium. This medium may be vacuum (in the case of electromagnetic radiation) or matter, and may be indefinitely large or finite."

"A pulse in signal processing is a rapid, transient change in the amplitude of a signal from a baseline value to a higher or lower value, followed by a rapid return to the baseline value

Wikipedia

I have now implemented the concept that I developed in 2020 with U-He's Hive "pulse for hive2", pulses for cinematic music, advertising trailers and the scoring of games, with arturia's Pigments synthesizer.

Pigments enables very complex controls through the "function generator" envelopes. These rhythmically modulate filters, oscillator volume, grain parameters, effect parameters and much more.

The complex function generators interact with the mod wheel, which plays an important role in this sound set. All movements in the presets are largely controlled by the mod wheel.

With the preset "Comb Pulse" for example: it is possible to fade from a pulsating rhythm to a bandpass filtered pad.

Another good example is the preset "Decoupled". Here you can continuously slow down a 16th beat to a standstill and even transform the envelope of the function generator into a mirrored waveform.

"Pulse" is suitable for the accompaniment of film scenes, action scenes, for creating suspense, for game music but also for electronic music in general.
