Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. One of the main advantages of being a hardware-loving luddite is that we are so far behind in innovation and musical mass appeal that we have become immune to what’s going on in the real world.
Today, however, we are going to talk about Pigments. While Arturia’s hardware synths can be considered yet another form of occupational therapy for folks like us, this seemingly omnipotent software instrument is widely regarded as “the real deal”, “the sound of the 2020s” and the first plugin to actually sound better than top-of-the-line hardware.
Nah!
