Reverb Machine has announced the release of a nostalgia-filled preset pack for the Pigments and Analog Lab virtual instruments from Arturia.
Inspired by the distinctive soundscapes of Boards of Canada, Chroma Campfire includes 80 meticulously crafted presets that both recreate some iconic Boards of Canada tracks and offer new sounds influenced by their unique style.
Utilising the advanced capabilities of Pigments, these detailed presets harness multiple layers, integrated samples, versatile filters, and complex effect chains to authentically replicate the effects-heavy sound of Boards of Canada’s music.
The presets in Chroma Campfire mirror the aesthetic of Boards of Canada, so there’s a strong focus on ambient pads infused with white noise, fuzzy distortion, tape delays, and dark reverbs. These sounds are very inspiring for crafting ambient soundscapes, echoing Boards of Canada’s penchant for ethereal tones and textured backgrounds.
Each preset is equipped with four custom macro controls, allowing immediate adjustments to fit your own musical tastes. Beyond ambient pads, the pack includes raspy analog leads, deep basses, and synthetic, Rhodes-like keys that embody a lo-fi charm. Perfect for producers and musicians seeking to channel the Boards of Canada synth vibe, Chroma Campfire enhances any project with its atmospheric depth and analog warmth.
Chroma Campfire for Pigments 5 and Analog Lab (either Pro or Play) is available to purchase for £24 GBP. Rekkerd readers can get a 33% discount on the pack by using coupon code 282T25FF at the checkout.
