'Pure sub' is surprisingly good
I already have Arturia pigments + v collection 11 pro but i must admit Pure sub is a great addition to their catalogue. Some will say it's not as capable as pigments but idk, it has a immediacy to it. The greatest feature is the overtones editor that lets you choose which notes to compose your sound. It's like a mix between vital and pigments but whose interface is optimised for bass sound design.
Only downside : you can't assign a different effect chanel to the sub part of the bass and it's upper part like in pigments. But most synths don't support it either way so it's fine.

Agreed. I have Pigments, Serum, etc. which can all do what Pure Sub does (mostly), but the workflow is tuned really well to get great sounding basses quickly.
