Arturia has updated Pigments to version 3.5. The new version includes significant enhancements. Here's what they say:
The free update launches Pigments into a new era of sound, exploring the intricate colors, textures, and energies at the frontiers of electronic music production, from trap to grime to future bass.
What's new:
- 3.5 introduces cross modulation between engines 1 and 2. Either engine can be used as a modulation source, with a number of parameters to customize for wild harmonics, unusual waveforms, and extreme sonic results.
- Pigments 3.5's new Distortion Module combines 16 modes of distortion with built-in filtering, for everything from bubbling germanium fuzz to jagged wavefolding, soft saturation or pure filth.
- Expanded Comb Filter.
- Pigments' comb filter now comes with 3 new damped modes; LP6, BP6, and HP6. These filter out certain frequencies in the feedback loop for unique sounds like ambient plucks, shimmering bowed leads, and much more.

- Pigments 3.5 features dozens of new wavetables inspired by molecular structures, mineral textures, and aggressive modern timbres.
