The Tweak button opens a whole LFO dynamics GUI for setting up modulation of the rate, changing the pan offset (shifts the left and right panorama itself anywhere-leaning to the left or right), defining the panning width (Width Mod) and panning rate (Rate Mod) depending on the level. This animated the reverb "cake" I was cooking up for a big vocal harmony stack. I used one of the wider panners for a reverb return I mixed with another instantiation of the same reverb patch. You have complete control over the LFO's speed or rate and the direction of the pan movement: Left-to-Right, Back-and-Forth, and Right-to-Left. I also liked using the LFO-based panners for more dreamy-sounding treatments. Borrowed from SoundToys' Tremolator and FilterFreak is the Custom Rhythm Editor-actually two editors for two different panning approaches-break point editors for designing complex modulation waveforms. Leave it to SoundToys to also provide controls called Feel and Rhythm to further sync the panning action to the feel of the music. I seemed to gravitate towards the Rhythm Step panning modes where you can designate multiple "hard" pan positions (up to five positions) that change in locked session tempo fashion.

Some of the panning actions possible are: ping-pong triggered panning and random triggered panning with user-definable trigger divider as found in the PanScan hardware unit and LFO-style continuous panning with selectable pan shapes and precise dynamics control.>/P>Īfter installing PanMan into my Pro Tools HD rig I was panning everything as if I was discovering stereo sound for the first time! I would suggest going through the big collection of presets and modifying one of them that is close to what you're looking for. PanMan has six modes including two rhythm modes complete with a user-programmable rhythm editor and numerous parameters for precisely determining the way any mono or stereo track in your mix can "dance" across the speakers. PanMan will control the pan type, reaction time, pan position, and pan width-even beyond the physical position of your stereo speakers.

PanMan addresses and allows full access to this important aspect of mixing with tools that offer new panning treatments that go way beyond the abilities of classic hardware analog panners such as PanScan or Spanner. In stereo mixing, changes in the basic nature of a vocal or instrument track are limited to the level or loudness of a track, its equalization/tone, whatever added effects (reverb, chorus, flanging delays etc), and it's panoramic position-it's placement across the stereo field as created by left and right placed loudspeakers.
PanMan is a rhythmic auto-panner plug-in with a groove control feature.
