Surround Panner parameters in Logic Pro
In Logic Pro, the Surround Panner features a set of common parameters, regardless of the
channel strip input format.
Click the disclosure triangle at the lower-left corner of the Surround Panner window to
display the extended parameters.
Note: The extended parameters are not available in the Surround Balancer.
Common Surround Panner parameters
• Surround Field: The surround field consists of the following:
• Two real-time display fields, for angle and diversity. You can directly interact with
these fields by dragging.
• A circular grid, comprised of four concentric circles, divided into eight 45-degree
segments. The outer circle represents the minimum amount of diversity. The center
circle represents maximum diversity.
• A further circle encloses the grid. This is the Diversity/Angle display. As the diversity/
angle changes, a portion of the diversity display is highlighted.
• A square may be overlaid on the grid. This indicates the separation point between
left and right channels, and also front and rear (surround) channels. Drag the
corners or edges of this separation square or use the sliders in the lower section of
the Surround Panner window to change values.
• A number of speaker icons surrounds the circular grid. Click the icons to turn the
respective channels on or off, thus changing the channel surround output format.
• Drag the blue dot to control signal routing (surround position in relation) to the
speaker outputs. Movement of the blue dot is modified with these functions:
• Hold Command to lock diversity.
• Hold Option-Command to lock the angle.
• Option-click the blue dot to reset angle and diversity.
