The subbass share (LFE) is set directly from the corresponding value table. It
can also be changed with the mouse.
There are various modes in which you can use the source signal:
Mono: The (stereo) source signal is seen as mono material, the left and right
channels are mixed together and arranged together. The original stereo
information is lost here.
Stereo 1: Similar to mono mode insofar as the left and right channels are
moved together, however, only a portion of the left source is audible in the
loudspeakers L and Ls and only a portion of the right source in the right
channels R and Rs. The stereo information remains as intact as possible.
Stereo 2: The left and right channels can be arranged independently of one
another, when moving the left source, the distance between the left and right
sources remains unchanged. You can move an individual source by holding
down the Alt key.
Center/LFE: Only the left channel is arranged. In return, the LFE share is drawn
solely from the right channel. This mode is only of importance to the Import of
surround material (view page 269).
Widt
h” determines the level of the sound field of an individual source.
Automation
Panning of the sound source on the loudspeaker can be automated to
simulate movements in the room.
For this to happen “Automation” must be activated. There are two methods to
create automations: record and draw.
To record (when automation is on), the sound source is moved between the
loudspeakers during playback. When recording the automation, the “Record”
checkbox lights up red.
An alternative to drawing out complex movements is the draw function. When
drawing in active mode, all panner movements are transmitted to the time
interval between the start and end marker (when the mouse button is held).
“Reset” deletes surround automation from the track.
