Stereo Spread Determines the separation between stereo audio tracks, with zero and -180° producing
minimum separation, and -90° producing maximum separation.
Radius Determines how far around the surround field the sound extends. For example, 100% produces a
focused sound originating from very few speakers, while 0% produces an unfocused sound originating from all
speakers.
Center For tracks panned to the front of the surround field, determines the percentage of Center channel level
relative to Left and Right level.
LFE Controls the level of signal sent to the subwoofer.
4 To pan additional tracks, simply select them in the Editor panel. The Track Panner automatically displays each
track’s unique settings.
To dynamically pan surround tracks over time, see “Automating track settings” on page 124.
