Detune Amount
Detuning is a common sound-thickening tech-
nique used on synthesizers and many effects de-
vices. Bruno’s Detune Amount control sets the
maximum amount of pitch detuning that occurs
when multiple voices are stacked together using
Voice Stacking. Using a combination of voice
stacking and detuning, you can create timbres
that are exceptionally fat.
Voices can be detuned up to 50.0 cents. (One
cent is equal to 1/100th of a semitone.)
Detune Velocity
Detune Velocity controls how MIDI key velocity
affects voice detuning. This gives you velocity-
sensitive control over voice detuning when you
play Bruno with a MIDI keyboard.
This control is adjustable from a low of 0.0 cents
(no velocity-sensitive detuning) to a high of
50.0 cents (maximum velocity-sensitive detun-
ing).
If Detune Velocity is set to 0.0 cents, detuning
will not change no matter how hard you strike a
key on your MIDI controller. Conversely, if you
set Detune Velocity to 50.0 cents, a hard strike
will detune voices a maximum of 50.0 cents (in
addition to the detuning specified with the De-
tune Amount control).
Bruno Voice Controls
These controls set Bruno’s voice polyphony and
allocation.
Mode
Mono (Monophonic) In this mode, Bruno re-
sponds monophonically, producing a single note
even if more than one is played simultaneously
(though multiple voices can be stacked on the
same note using the Voice Stacking control).
Monophonic mode gives voice priority to the
most recently played note.
Poly (Polyphonic) In this mode, Bruno responds
polyphonically, producing as many notes as are
played simultaneously (up to 62 on
Pro Tools|HD Accel systems). The number of
notes that can be played simultaneously de-
pends on the Voice Stacking setting chosen. A
voice stack setting of 1, for example, allows up
to 62 individual notes simultaneously. A voice
stack setting of All allows only one note at a
time, but will stack all 62 voices on that note,
producing an extremely fat sound.
Detune Velocity has an effect only when you
play Bruno with a velocity-sensitive MIDI
controller.
