PAN PAGE
In this page you may set the characteristics of the auto panning functions. Pressing
will display this screen:
As usual, the program name of the program currently selected for editing is shown here
which you may change if you like. As in the OUTPUT page, we have three modulation
inputs which can control panning. The defaults for these three control inputs are:
This will produce the classic auto panner effect with the sound
gradually moving between left and right at a rate set by LFO 2.
You can use this for special effects, of course, but one popular
application is to use it to simulate a rotary speaker effect. You may
set a value of ±50.
This selects that key position will affect overall loudness. You may
set a value of ±50. With positive setting (i.e. +50) the sound will
pan from left to right across the keyboard and, if set to a negative
value (i.e. -50), will pan the sound from right to left across the
keyboard. You may use this parameter to create pseudo stereo
samples out of mono ones. For example, with samples such as
piano or marimba or vibes, you could create the stereo effect of
microphones being placed at either end of their keyboards to
produce a panning effect.
This allows you to control pan position using the modulation wheel.
This could be put to good effect in a solo line, perhaps, where,
every time you introduce vibrato via the wheel, the sound pans
around the stereo image. You may set a value of ±50.
NOTE: Due to limitations with the panning hardware, whilst slow sweeps work well, fast
sweeps may, on some sounds, introduce some ‘zipper noise’. Please be aware of this
when setting pan modulation.
As with all control inputs on the S3000XL, any combination of controllers can be mixed
together. Here are a few suggestions:
Bend Use this instead of modwheel perhaps.
Pressure Use this instead of modwheel or bend.
External Use maybe a footpedal to pan the sound around. EWI players
may use breath control.
Velocity You can use your keyboard dynamics to pan the sound around
with loud sounds appearing at one output and soft sounds at the
other.
LFO1 Use this as an alternative to LFO2. This LFO’s extra facilities allow
some very odd things to be done. Try applying this and
