Gain Amount attenuates output level gain. Since some of Bruno’s controls can cause extreme changes in signal level, this is particularly useful for preventing clipping and achieving unity gain with the original signal level. This control is adjustable from a low of –96 dB (no gain) to a high of 0.0 dB (maximum gain).
Gain Velocity sets the velocity sensitivity of the Gain Amount control. This gives you touch-sensitive control over Bruno’s volume using a MIDI keyboard.
This control is adjustable from a low of –24 dB (maximum velocity sensitivity) to a high of 0.0 dB (no velocity sensitivity).
If you set Gain Velocity to –24 dB, a soft strike on a key will reduce gain up to –24 dB. A hard strike will have a maximum output level equal to the current dB setting of the Gain Amount control.
Conversely, if Gain Velocity is set to 0.0 dB, Bruno’s volume will not change no matter how hard or soft you strike a key on your MIDI controller.

Mix adjusts the mix of the processed audio with the original, unprocessed audio.
When Bruno is used in stereo, the Spread control can be used to pan multiple voices within the stereo field. This control is adjustable from 0% (no stereo spread) to 100% (maximum stereo spread).
Voice stacking has a direct effect on stereo Spread. For example, setting Voice Stack to 1 and Spread to 100% will randomly pan each note played. Setting Voice Stack to 4 and Spread to 100%, will pan two of the four voices hard left, and two voices hard right.
The ADSR (attack, decay, sustain, release) Envelope Generator controls Bruno’s amplitude envelope. This amplitude envelope is applied to a sound each time a note is struck.
The four envelope elements can be adjusted by dragging the appropriate breakpoint, or by typing in a numeric value.
Controls the amount of time in milliseconds that the sound takes to rise from zero amplitude to its full level. The longer the attack, the more time it takes for the sound to reach maximum volume after the a note is struck. This control is adjustable from 0.0 to 5000 milliseconds.
Controls the amount of time in milliseconds that the sound takes to fall from its peak Attack level to the Sustain level. This control is adjustable from 0.0 ms to 5000 ms.
Controls the amplitude level in dB that is reached after the decay time has elapsed. The amplitude level stays constant as long as a MIDI note remains depressed. This control is adjustable from –96 dB (no sustain) to 0.0 dB (maximum sustain).
Controls the amount of time in milliseconds that the sound takes to fall from the Sustain level to zero amplitude after a note is released. This control is adjustable from 0.0 ms to 5000 ms.
