Pan Meter
The Pan Meter is a collection of red and yellow LEDs that show you the
current pan position. The LEDs charge and discharge like real LEDs and will
create trails when the pan position moves quickly. The red LEDs indicate
the normal range of panning (-90 to +90 degrees). Beyond these lie the
yellow LEDs which represent the extended range of PanMan. If you see the
meter lighting up the yellow LEDs, that means you are panning beyond the
speakers.
Note that there’s nothing wrong with panning that far, but if it’s not what
you want, use the meter to keep your panning inside the red.
Choosing a Modulation Type and Source
When it comes to modulation the more sources you have the greater the
sonic possibilities. PanMan includes SIX different modulation options
selected under the small white button below the Rate knob. The available
types of modulation available include:
LFO (default)
Rhythm Step
Rhythm Shape
PingPong (Triggered)
Random
Step (Triggered)
To select one of the modulation sources, click on the “LFO” pop-up button,
drag the mouse to highlight the desired type and let go. You will notice that
the name above the button will change (as will the parameters in this area
of the front panel). Though the button name will change to reflect the
selected type of modulation, the function of this button remains constant:
opening the menu to select among the various types of modulation.
