Sound designer Larry Poulton let us know that he’s shared several patch libraries for Arturia synths, with ‘pay what you want’ pricing.
Poulton‘s libraries include three collections for Analog Lab, four collections for Pigments, and a variety of collections for individual Arturia synths.
“I am a patch creator – working mainly with Arturia plugins,” he notes. “I am not a business – just an old bloke in his studio, doing what he loves.”
All of Poulton’s libraries are available now as free downloads. If you find them useful, you’re encouraged to pay what you want, via a ‘buy me a coffee’ link.

Since the Prologue was discontinued, though, it seems like appreciation of the analog flagship synth has been growing steadily, as musicians have discovered its great analog sound, solid build and ease of use.
This set of videos, via synthesist Panu M Savolainen, offers ‘shut up and play’ style demos of the Prologue, showcasing the range of the instruments’ native synth engine. Only internal FX and factory presets were used.
The videos do a good job of showcasing the range of sonic possibilities that the Prologue is capable of.
