Arturia – Arturia Pure LoFi v1.0.1 for WiN

Your essential tool for creating authentic lo-fi sound. Mix acoustic samples and digital oscillators, harness the charm of vintage samplers, and instantly degrade with a powerful LoFi processor—embrace the imperfections of sound.

Lo-fi, embodying imperfection, noise, distortion, and age, has evolved from an inescapable technical reality into a beloved musical aesthetic spanning multiple genres. From the hum of portable studios and VHS samplers to the nostalgic charm of chillhop, the spirit of sonic deterioration has become a cultural phenomenon.

Full-spectrum lo-fi sound design

Add digital grain with the engine’s built-in hardware modes, warm it up or wear it down with the Lo-Fi processor, and then wrap it all in foil or noise for even more detail—create sounds that feel worn, battered, and distinctive .

Your lo-fi palette

Not just sounds, but fragments of faded memories. From detuned keys to corroded cassette tapes, combine acoustic and synthetic sounds with a vast library of instruments, waveforms, and samples.
