If set to Spherical, the results are placed on a virtual sphere. If it helps, imagine the
sphere as a virtual head. When the direction puck is placed in the top half of the
circular plane, the sound is in front of the listener. As the direction puck is moved
toward the lower half of the plane, the sound passes up, and over your head, and
ends up behind the listener.
4. Set the size of the plane or sphere by doing one of the following:
Drag the Size slider.
Double-click the Size field, then enter a new value.
Option-click the Size field to reset it to its default value (1.50m).
5. Click the Doppler button to turn on or off the Doppler effect.
6. Select the Diffuse-Field Compensation checkbox in the Extended Parameters area to
ensure a neutral sound for headphone playback, utilizing diffuse-field compensation.
Note: When using multiple Binaural Panners on several channel strips, turn this option
off and route the output of the Binaural Panners to an aux channel strip, in which you
insert the Binaural Post-Processing plug-in. The Binaural Post-Processing plug-in
allows you to apply diffuse-field compensation to all Binaural Panner outputs at once,
saving CPU power.
7. If in Planar mode, drag the Mode image to control the vertical offset and tilt of the
circular plane.
The Binaural Post-Processing plug-in in Logic Pro
The Binaural Post-Processing plug-in is available in aux and output channel strips. This
plug-in allows you to apply various compensation modes on a stereo bus or output,
through which several, or all, binaural signals are routed. This saves CPU power and makes
it easy to switch between compensation modes.
