Loops: Sets the number of times the auto pan effect repeats. Values range from 1 to
30.

Apply Volume: Sets how the audio levels change when the Auto Pan effect repeats.
Value can be set to Once Per Loop or Over Entire Duration. If set to Once Per Loop, the
Auto Pan affects audio level changes each time a loop marker is met. If set to Over
Entire Duration, the Auto Pan affects audio level changes.

End Condition: Sets how the pan loops when the Auto Pan effect repeats. Value can
be set to Repeat or Ping Pong. This setting has an effect only if Loops is set to a value
greater than 1.

the audio effect starts.

End Offset: Sets the number of frames from the end of the audio before which the
audio effect stops.

HUD Controls
The HUD contains the same controls as the Inspector, with the exception of the Start
Offset and End Offset controls.

Audio Fade In/Fade Out

Automates fading in and out an audio track.

Parameters in the Inspector

Fade In Time: Sets the number of frames over which the audio fades in from –96 dB to
0 dB from the first frame of the audio track. A duration of 0 frames leaves the
beginning of the audio track unmodified.

Fade Out Time: Sets the number of frames over which the audio fades out from 0 dB
to –96 dB. A duration of 0 frames leaves the end of the audio track unmodified.

Start Offset: Sets the number of frames from the beginning of the audio track after
which the volume animation starts. Adjust this parameter to make the behavior start
after the beginning of the audio track.
