Common Arturia Pigments 5 Questions
How do I configure my MIDI keyboard to control Pigments 5's parameters and play notes?
Go to Pigments 5's 'Settings' panel, then the 'MIDI' tab. Ensure your MIDI keyboard is selected as the input device and enable 'MIDI Learn' to assign physical controls to Pigments 5's knobs and sliders.
Where are my custom patches saved in Pigments 5, and how can I back them up?
Custom patches are saved within Pigments 5's internal database. To back them up, use Pigments' built-in 'Export' function (found in the preset browser's menu) to create a .pgtx file containing your selected presets, then store that .pgtx file separately.
How do I quickly browse through and audition different sound presets within Pigments 5?
Use the Preset Browser located at the top of the Pigments 5 interface. You can filter by category, style, and author, and easily audition sounds by clicking on their names or using the arrow keys.
Pigments 5 is crashing or freezing my DAW. What troubleshooting steps should I take?
First, ensure you have the latest version of Pigments 5 installed. If the problem persists, try increasing your DAW's buffer size, disabling other plugins to identify conflicts, and contacting Arturia support with your system information.
How do I use the new Unison Warp and Unison Jitter features in Pigments 5 to create more dynamic and evolving sounds?
Within the 'Engine' section, adjust the 'Warp' and 'Jitter' knobs in the 'Unison' panel. 'Warp' introduces detuning variations across voices, while 'Jitter' randomizes the unison parameters, creating complex stereo movement and timbral shifts.
