Yes, but with the right FX you can turn every lame duck synth into a beast.

Not that Pigments is a duck (or lame)... :)

Unless you happen to be working with “duck” samples. :lol:

I'm still doing my first expansion for PIGMENT, I really like the synth and I've added some of my own samples.

I use some of these in different patches. When I export the expansion, the file size of the expansion increases a lot. This is normal because the samples are saved in the expansion file, but if I use the same sample in different patches, the file size also gets bigger...

Does anyone have any idea how I can change that?

I think, you can't if the samples are embedded with/in the patch.

It's quite high. The same consumption I've had with my old i7-860. My new Ryzen 9300x is about 0,5 - 0,8% with 3-4 note chord (using Reaper). Formerly I've had big problems with complex patches but everything is much smoother now.
I checked the CPU in the task manager of Windows using the standalone version. What presets did you check? Maybe I can try those out here and see what I get.

EDIT:
After clicking on the Details tab of the Task Manager, that shows the CPU never getting above 1% for Pigments.
O.K. lets try it this way.

Presets/PADS/5th sweep (one note) - Task Manager - 1,3%
Presets/PADS/Above Sheer Beauty (three notes) - TM - 1,2%
Presets/PADS/Abyss (three notes) - TM - 1,7%
Presets/PADS/Space Pad (three notes) - TM - 1,5%
Presets/PADS/Alhambra (three notes) - TM - 1,9%

Mario
Are those percentages per core or for the whole CPU?

Is there really no way to set the starting phase of the Wavetable oscs when they're in Key retrigger mode?

Can you delete or overwrite all the factory patches in the full version of Pigments 2? as this is something you can't find out in the demo. I'm thinking of synths like Largo and Nave where for some strange reason you can't.

I found them manually and deleted them on my computer.

Curious to know why you did that. Don't like or want to use them? Want to make presets on your own?

OCD and don't like clutter, I'm sure they're fine presets but I enjoy programming.

Don't know if the comment was aimed at me, see above. Hipster not.

is it normal that there is like a 1-second delay in changing presets? This problem is holding me back from buying this synth

I understand. OCD - I feel you. But wasn't sure OCD can make you do these things too. :)
