The Audio Montage 19 – 517
Using the Surround Pan window
You can use the Surround Pan window to “program” each envelope point –
this makes it easy to set up automated surround panning for a clip. Here’s
an example.
Let’s say that we want the signal to start at the front center position, then
move to the left rear speaker and finally move to the right rear speaker.
Proceed as follows:
1. Set up a track for surround panning by activating the desired surround
channels in the Audio dispatching dialog.
2. Open the clip speed menu for a clip on the track and bring up the Show
envelope submenu.
3. Select “Surround Pan (Left <-> Right)”.
Or, you could select the “Front-Rear” envelope – it doesn’t matter at this point.
4. The envelope currently has points at the very start and end of the clip –
we want one more point, somewhere in between. Double click the enve-
lope to add a new envelope point in the middle of the clip.
This will be the position where the signal reaches the left rear speaker. Note that it’s only
the position in the clip that is important when you create envelope points at this stage – not
the vertical position of the point.
5. Right-click the surround pan display in the Track Control area to bring up
the Surround Pan window.
6. Select the envelope point at the start of the clip.
