Description

Arturia Augmented PERSIA is the hybrid sampling and synthesis instrument featuring 6 deeply-sampled Persian and Middle Eastern instruments (Oud, Tar, Saz, Ney, Alto Kamancheh, Shah Kaman), over 200 cinematic-ready presets, and 4 synthesis engines (Virtual Analog, Granular, Wavetable, Harmonic) with 2.79 GB of recorded content, running natively on Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3, and M4 processors for expressive cinematic scoring, ambient production, and contemporary sound design in 2026.

🎛️ What’s Inside

Feature / Module What It Does Perfect For
🎵 Oud, Tar, Saz (Plucked Strings) Three deeply-sampled plucked string instruments with warm honeyed melodies, taut nasal bite, and bright wiry energy. Middle Eastern melodies, cinematic scoring, world music production, organic textures.
🎻 Alto Kamancheh, Shah Kaman (Bowed Strings) Two bowed string instruments offering expressive depth from reedy ornamental trills to sweeping cello-like sustains. Emotional passages, dramatic scoring, ambient drones, expressive performances.
🌬️ Ney (Wind) Breathy wind instrument with dusky hollow sustains in lower register and keening voice-like expression in upper range. Meditative passages, dramatic phrases, atmospheric layers, contemplative moods.
🔊 4 Synthesis Engines Virtual Analog (TAE technology), Granular (warp, glitch, stretch), Wavetable (abrasive digital), and Harmonic (additive synthesis). Hybrid textures, electronic layers, sound design, morphing between acoustic and synthetic.
🔄 Morph Control Blends between Layer A and Layer B with endless modulation possibilities for evolving hybrid sounds. Evolving textures, transitions, live performance, dynamic sound design.
🎹 Arpeggiator and Sequencer 16-step arpeggiator with Chance lane and Auto Regen for evolving rhythmic patterns. Rhythmic movement, pulsing sequences, generative patterns, cinematic pulses.
🎛️ Effects and Modulation 2 FX slots per layer with 16 effects, 7 macros, 2 LFOs, 2 Function Generators, 2 Random sources, drag-and-drop modulation. Sound shaping, creative processing, spatial effects, complex modulation routing.

💡 Pro Tip

Use the Morph control to start with a pure acoustic Ney or Oud sample, then gradually blend in the Granular engine for evolving cinematic textures. Assign the Motion macro to an LFO for automatic movement, and enable the Chance lane in the arpeggiator for generative patterns that never repeat the same way twice.
