You can start with these, they are pretty good and free

There are lots of others as well, I just can't remember where I got them, just search, you might get more hits for Serum, that doesn't matter though

Silly thing about Pigments though is that you can't load a single cycle waveform, you have to make into a "single cycle" wavetable first. The early digital synths used single cycle waveforms, and they still have a lot going for them. You can of course play any cycle as a single cycle waveform and morph between them to create new waveforms, still annoying when you have a particular waveform you want to use though

must be the readers digest version 
The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.

I buy in economy.
The Neon Synthwave expansion for Carbon Electra is really cool! If you are looking for something horror Stranger Thing style it is perfect! Especially the arpeggiated presets inspire me a lot.
I also bought Cherry Audio's DCO-106, it's very good.
SynthMaster's presets are beautiful but not as good as the package for Carbon Electra.
