Pan Graph
When the Pan parameters are on the knobset, a pan graph appears on the TFT screen
showing the two-dimensional position (front:surround and left:right) for that channel.

SmartPan
The System 5 panner has an automatic function called SmartPan that prevents the dis-
appearance of the audio signal during panning if some of that Mix Section’s busses are
not assigned. For example, if a channel is assigned to a 5.1 Mix Section output but does
not send anything to the center mix bus, SmartPan automatically uses a stereo pan law
so the signal is still present when panned to the center. SmartPan is always on and can-
not be dissabled by the user.
Track Panner Module
The Track Panner Module is a four-Strip wide optional addition to the System 5 con-
sole. It controls the Pan of a channel, Multi Format Master, or Control Group assigned
to the Center Strip. Press a Strip’s Wave key to assign it to the Center Strip; the active
channel’s Pan is automatically controlled by the Track Panner Module.
The switch to the lower left of the trackball is the Select/Punch key for the trackball
panner. The switch to the lower right of the trackball provides the same function as the
Pan function key on the assigned channel: the Pan parameters are assigned to the knob-
set and the Pan graph appears in the TFT display.
See Joystick Module on page 224 to learn more about the CM403’s joystick functions.
