Arturia Pigments 2 Sequencer Tutorial

Arturia's Pigments has got a secret. The sequencer is RAD. In this tutorial we go over this 6 lane polyrhythmic beast and how it could change the way you make music! It should be clarified that this is for Pigments 2, pigments 1 has the sequencer minus some of the features here.

“ I feel like it was designed for me” that right there is the holy grail of product design. Massive kudos to Arturia. One of the few hardware/software music tech companies who get both of them right most of the time!

This video is required watching for pigments owners!

Fantastic breakdown

I'm so glad to see you make tutoriels on this synth! It would be great to see you explore its possibilities like you did on Operator. Anyway, I think I'll enjoy anything you might publish! Thanks for everything.

Nice! - The sequencer lanes are similar to the ones on Korg's Wavestate. (No idea which came first.) Very powerful and useful concept.

So much power with the locking and randomization options. The fact that it can even send midi out is truly awesome. This is the degree of note randomizing that ableton, bitwig, cubase etc. need to implement. Random, generative music but with constraints.

Got it a few days ago and I am blown away. Infinite possibilities.

Now on Pigments 4 - it just keeps getting better! Very useful video!

[karelhoogendoorn]

I'm in the process of creating my first studio and I'm making a wishlist. Ableton Live with the Push 2, Arturia Keylab 88 and the Roliboard 49 are already there. This will definitely be my first VST. Thnx for this great demo!

[lulalula]

This video was so useful. Thank you so much! I barely know anything about synths, I just play around with them but you made it so clear and easy. Thank you!

[justingodwin]

Great video. This synth has quickly become my go to synth. I haven’t even tried the sequencer yet. That will change. Thanks for the vid.

[captainbleep]

I was already planning on messing with the Pigments sequencer this weekend. Clearly it was meant to be! Pigments has rapidly become my favorite plugin.

[robbyheiberg]

Please please please more Pigments tutorials man! I love this software synth and you were actually the reason I finally checked out the sequencer! Its awesome and I'm sure you have a ton more valuable insights on the other features of pigments!

[IrishFlip]

Thanks for this tutorial on the sequencer part. Keep em coming with Pigments 2.

[RAMusic]

Yes more videos on Pigment. I too have this plugin and continue to be amazed by the endless possibilities for sound design you can achieve. I am a dedicated Ableton user, and your content on the native instruments has been great, but I also use Arturia plugins and want to be able to get the most from them as well. Thx.

[watchandproduce]

This is a great video. Hope you do more videos on Pigments.

[Loagz_Beatz]

I am beyond impressed with this vst I been on it for like 3 days straight

[jpponline]

Nice one! Love to see your take on generative music with all the randomization options with Sample Hold / Turing / Binary.

[ohadshabi]

Great tutorial! I love watching tutorials of plugins other than Ableton devices also.

[RaddMann]

I just bought Pigments 2 last night. Thanks for the tutorial of the sequencer. I haven’t even finished checking out all the stock presets. It’s an amazing software synth!
