Thomas welcomes you and starts off by demonstrating how to create several bass patches. First up is an analog-sounding bass stab patch utilizing the analog oscillators and filter models. Then discover how to use amplifier and notch filter modulation to build a distorted bass tone. A chomp bass and a wavetable house bass round out the section, illustrating the use of the function controls and amplifier envelope modulation, respectively, among other tricks.
Next, explore the world of keys and pads with five patches: textured keys (with multiple synth engines), underwater keys (created with two sample layers), ambient pad (utilizing Pigment’s sampler), lo-fi synth keys (with several modulations), and synth Rhodes (twisting a one-shot Rhodes sample into a synthetic-sounding keyboard).
Throughout the rest of the course, you’ll learn how to create two different lead sounds by using multiple delays, re-synthesizing audio material, and more. By the end, you’ll be well-versed in the sound-designing aspects of Pigment and on your way to creating your own signature tones!
