You can use the MC-808’s eight motorized faders to adjust settings such as volume and pan for each part in real time.
Of course you can also record fader movements into the pattern (p. 65).

Raising a fader will increase the volume, and lowering a fader
will decrease the volume.

* When the value is at “100,” the volume will be as specified by the
patch itself.
You can adjust the panning (left/right position) of the sound that is
sent in stereo from the OUTPUT jacks (MIX L/R, DIRECT L/R). For
example you might pan the drums and bass to the center, the piano
to the right, and a synth pad to the left.

* In a patch or rhythm set, there is a pan setting for each tone (rhythm
tone). Adjusting the part pan setting will apply a relative shift to the
panning of the entire patch or rhythm set.
* For some patches, you may still hear a small amount of sound from the
opposite speaker even if you’ve panned all the way to the far left (or
right). Also, the part pan setting is ignored in the following situations.
