Those would fall under the "couple of interesting features" category. I think the sequencer in my Analog Keys has something similar but I prefer to know what note my sequencer is going play next.

Have to say Arturia product support seems fantastic

I'm very pleased with my Pigments 2 purchase

Well, can't say with regard to other times, but now really Arturia guys did the trick. Respect.
(I did check new poly mode - works just fine).

When devs say something is there "by design" my hopes get instantly crushed

So glad to be proven wrong this time around

YES!

in the keyboard settings you need to set "Steal" to "Rotate" to take effect

merci beaucoup edouard et léo!

A word of warning if you are installing updates - My Analog Lab also had an update pending so I let it do both. When it finished it restarted my computer without warning. I was in the middle of writing an email and lost half of it.

Well, now Pigments really something special at whole synth market.

The only is still as always CPU usage ) As example, i take configuration perhaps a bit heavier than middle: 16 active voices (during max release) x2 WT Engines, in each Unison 2x, with couple random modulations = 48% in S1 cpu meter. (At not a most weak i7-8700)
But it's just as test info, not exactly complaint.
(As well I did compare for just in case with previous (old poly-mode) version - all exactly the same. No CPU increasing in new i mean, that good).

Added: but ofcourse i suppose that at other audio interfaces (at RME especially) cpu usage can be less, due to sometimes significant dependencies from asio optimisation, different at each vendor.

Same here, on Win10. But I've been on the other side of the fence too — had reboots when others didn't.

FWIW, when I updated Pigments 2 and Analog Lab a day or two ago, I hadn't run a DAW or stand-alone music application since the last reboot. Maybe relevant, maybe not.

Thank you Arturia for fixing the bugs. It is ideal now. Love it!

What a beast of a synth.

Hey guys,

Does anyone know how to remove the Pigments demo version from either, Arturia Software Center, or the products page?... I bought Pigments after trying it, but the demo - marked expired - is still listed, along with my activated copy. No big deal, really, just like to keep things tidy.

Thanks.

It happened to me also.

Yeah, that annoys me, too, and I can't see any way to get rid of it.
