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, but 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 moved individually. The distance
between the left and right source is retained when you move the left source.
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 important for importing
Surround material.
Width 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"
check box lights up red.
The draw function is an alternative to drawing out complex movements. When
drawing in active mode, all panning movements are transmitted to the time
interval between the start and end marker (when the mouse button is held).
You can thus draw the entire movement curve for the selected time range.
"Reset" deletes surround automation from the track.
There is no automation of the parameters for width and LFE, of the distance
between the left and right source in "Stereo 2" mode, or of the loudspeaker
positions.
