Software Instruments Pigments

#1

Hello, i really like this instruments, but it looks something very important is missing: pitch shifting and time stretching
Excpecially the pitch shifting is vital for me
Is there an di don’t notice, or is there a workaround to do that?
thanks

Hi @Stefanocps we’re glad to see you here!

Not currently AFAIK, you could try the ‘Pitch Shift Delay’ in the included effects, somehow i don’t think that’s what you’re after though?

We will mark this topic as a feature request to let our team know about it.

yes the shimmer is not what i am talking about. I am talking about 2 very usefula and in certain way common functions. It is starnge that a beautiful sampler as pigments don t do that. It is really a pity!

That’s what i figured, who knows what the future will bring though. Pigments is ever evolving so you never know!

#5

hopefully will be quick…i am now in a mood to choose what sampler to use…

may be meanwhile, spomeone can tell me some workaround for pitch shift

So as of Pigments 6, there’s still no way to stretch a sample waveform, zoom in and select a portion of the stretched wave?

Hi all,

I think it’s important to understand, that Pigments is’nt a full blown sampler. It’s a synth that can use samples. And it can use samples in many ways.
That said then one day perhaps a Audio Sample Pitch Time Stretch wil be introduced in Pigments.

Pigments have 6 sample slots, so using 6 different pitched samples go a long way. Even full blown samplers that have Pitch Time Stretch still use this method, but with many more audio samples.

In pigments you do get the right pitch, but the sample time is not stretched.
Real time Pitch Time Stretch will require computing power.

In Pigments you can Zoom in. You can also set Loop points in a sample and set a start point. But If you wan’t to alter the audio sample, then you should work with the sample in a external sample editor.
You can zoom by click and drag up and down on the top ruler in the sample window.
