Mode Description
from begins at the specified center value and decays to -infinity.
Constant Power This mode is most useful for panning monaural source material. In
this mode, sound will maintain its volume when you pan across
channels.
If you pan a stereo file 100% R, only the right channel of your media
file is played, and this channel is sent to both output channels. If you
continue to pan to the left, the left channel is gradually added to the
output, and the right channel is gradually faded out until only the left
channel will be heard through both output channels when the slider is
at 100% L.
If you pan a file fully right midway between the front and rear
channels in a 5.1 surround project, only the right channel of your
media file is played, and this channel is sent to the right-front and -
rear output channels. If you pan to the left, the left channel is
gradually added to the output, and the right channel is gradually
faded out until only the left channel is sent to the left-front and -rear
output channels.
