Parallel Cores with Reactive Wet/Dry
The engine and envelope follower can ride wet/dry so the effect “breathes” around transients or overtakes them on demand.

BRUITAGE is a reactive distortion effect for performers, producers, and sound designers who want grit that responds under your hands. It turns input into motion—your dynamics, velocity, and gestures shape tone in real time—so distortion breathes with your performance.
Six hand‑tuned algorithms, dual parallel cores, and expressive performance-ready control make BRUITAGE behave less like a static processor and more like an instrument. From parallel overdrives to wavefolded walls, shoegaze-style haze, glitching bitcrushes, and tape-worn wobble, BRUITAGE celebrates noise as music. Mastering-grade dynamics—compression and dual-mode limiting—keep extremes musical, making distortion playable, immediate, and inspiring.
BRUITAGE is for anyone who wants to inject grit, chaos, or organic imperfection into music or sound design. From walls of texture to cinematic breakdowns, it’s a playground for performance and experimentation—stage, studio, or scoring.
BRUITAGE stands apart by dynamically responding to your playing. Your input doesn’t just trigger distortion—it shapes it. Dig in and hear your tone bloom; ease off and let the sound breathe. The result is a performable instrument where noise becomes expression.
Touch to tone:
Performance drives amount, texture, and motion—instant expression.
Musical headroom:
Integrated compression and limiting keep levels controlled.
The engine and envelope follower can ride wet/dry so the effect “breathes” around transients or overtakes them on demand.
Transparent compressor and dual-mode limiter (Modern and Vintage) tame volatility without dulling impact.
Play the sound, not the menu. Animated X, Y, and Z controls are performance-ready macros that move drive, character, and motion together. One gesture delivers multidimensional change.
BRUITAGE reframes distortion as a performance tool—reactive, playable, expressive. It delivers expansive sound design, advanced control when needed, and touch-driven grit when it matters most: while creating.
Six algorithms, countless expressions—crafted over weeks to feel immediate, musical, and mix-ready. Fewer choices, faster emotion. Each mode comes alive with the reactive engine, parallel blend, and envelope-driven dynamics.
Parallel punch, controlled bloom. Stack character while the reactive wet/dry keeps transients sharp or smeared.
Harmonics that breathe. 8-stage, touch-sensitive wavefolder with subtle overdrive.
Walls that move. Distortion → reverb → more distortion → chorus; immersive parallel blend.
Believable broken air. Random stereo bitcrush and packet loss. Use when: clean sounds need dirt and movement.
Beautifully unstable. Chaotic stereo stutters and dropouts. Use when: drums, vocals, or FX need broken-signal drama.
orn, warm, alive. Wow, flutter, wear, and speaker fatigue. Use when: everything is too perfect and needs human wobble.
