LR PAN for Stereo Channels The PAN ON/OFF and PAN functions are extended to enable working with
either standard (L/R) stereo or with MS (mono/side) signals. In addition,
features are available to increase the stereo image manipulation possibilities,
such as
  • Inputdirectionor
  • Inputbalance,
  • Stereowidth(panwidth),and
  • Stereodirection.
Whether the stereo width function is available depends on the currently loaded
configuration.

Virtual Surround Panning (VSP) Various surround panning algorithms can be used for mono input, group,
multi-track input, and multi-track monitor channels; this depends on the cur-
rently loaded configuration.
Basically, two different surround panning algorithms are available: Multi-
format pan, and VSP (Virtual Surround Panning), see table; some more
information on these algorithms is given in the ‘Parameters’ sections below.
