Product Description

• Reactive. Playable. Alive. Introducing BRUITAGE
• a new take on distortion: reactive
• playable
• alive. Instead of simply adding drive
• BRUITAGE listens and responds—turning your performance into a dialogue between signal and living grit. At its core are six hand‑tuned algorithms
• each exploring a different facet of distortion
• chaos
• and sonic imperfection. Dual parallel cores let character stack without blurring the hit
• whileexpressive control and a transient-aware
• reactive wet/dry blend keep the edge intact—or letharmonics take over—by choice. From parallel overdrives with punch
• to wavefolded walls
• shoegaze-style haze
• glitching bitcrushes
• and tape-worn wobble
• BRUITAGE celebrates noise as music. An intuitive interface and mastering-grade dynamics (compression and dual-mode limiting from the BOREALIS FX engine) keep extremes musical—making distortion playable
• immediate
• and inspiring. Features Touch to tone: Performance drives amount
• texture
• and motion—instant expression. Musical headroom: Integrated compression and limiting keep levels controlled. 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. Performance Surface (X/Y/Z) Six Hand-Tuned Algorithms: 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. Mastering-Grade Dynamics (Borealis Lineage):  Transparent compressor and dual-mode limiter (Modern and Vintage) tame volatility without dulling impact. Noise Effect Playground: 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. 64‑bit VST3/AU/AAX for Windows (10+) and macOS (10.11+)
