Pigments mixes wavetable, virtual analog, sample and granular engines, so two presets with similar names can sound nothing alike. Tags help, but they can't compare sounds.
Presetti listens to your Pigments presets and lets you search them by sound. Record a sound, drop a sample, or pick a preset to find the closest ones.

Where Presetti finds your Pigments presets
You don't need to know where Pigments keeps its presets. Presetti looks for them on its own, and you can point it at any other folder.
- The standard preset folders for Pigments on your computer
- Built-in presets, when Pigments makes them available
- Any extra folders you add, such as packs on another drive
Good to know
- Pigments also lists 128 numbered "ProgramChange" slots. These are empty placeholders, not real sounds, so ignore them if they show up in results.

Why preset names are not enough when you are looking for a sound
Preset libraries are full of evocative names, but they are a poor way to remember and rediscover the sound you actually need.
