These controls set Bruno’s voice polyphony and allocation.
In this mode, Bruno responds 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.
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 depends 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.
Voice Stack selects the number of voices that are used, or stacked when you play a single note. The number of voices that you choose to stack will directly affect polyphony. Selecting a larger number of stacked voices will reduce the number of notes that you can play simultaneously.
The sample rate of your session also affects polyphony. For example, in a 96 kHz session, Bruno can simultaneously play up to:
|
In a 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz session on a Pro Tools|HD system not equipped with an HD Accel card, Bruno can simultaneously play up to:
Voice counts for Bruno for 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz sessions are the same on Pro Tools|HD-series systems not equipped with an HD Accel card.
If all available voices are being used, playing an additional note will replace the first note played in the chord.
