The LR PAN has only one panning function: left/right panning. It is useful
for left and right panning to stereo master or group busses or odd/even
panning to group or multitrack busses. The LR PAN is available only on
mono channel types.
LR PAN (PAN) has the following parameters:
ON/OFF: The first SW key on the LACP provides an ON/OFF function.
PAN: The fourth LACP rotary encoder provides left and right (odd/even) pan-
ning control with 1° steps from –30° (left) to +30° (right). L30 indicates
full left, 30R indicates full right, and L00R indicates the center position.
The DIR is a stereo direction pan and is available only in stereo channel
types. It is useful for controlling the direction of stereo signals to master,
group, and multitrack busses.
DIR has the following parameters:
FUNC: The SW key or rotary encoder is used to select one of two input functions:
IBAL or IDIR.
IBAL: This parameter is used to control the input balance of a stereo channel. The
SW key is used to turn this function ON/OFF. Turning the rotary encoder
to the left attenuates the right channel from 0 to -∞ dB (L30) while the left
channel remains at full input level, and vice versa. L30 indicates full right
channel attenuation, 30R indicates full left channel attenuation, and L00R
indicates 0 attenuation on either channel.
IDIR: The rotary encoder is used to control the input direction of a stereo chan-
nel in 1° steps from –30° (left) to +30° (right). The SW key is used to turn
this function ON/OFF. L30 indicates full left, 30R indicates full right, and
L00R indicates the center position.
DIR: This provides left and right (odd/even) panning control in 1° steps from
–30° (left) to +30° (right). L30 indicates full left, 30R indicates full right,
and L00R indicates the center position.
The DIR WIDTH is identical to the DIR pan with the addition of a width
control.
DIR WIDTH (DIR) has the following parameters:
FUNC: The SW key or rotary encoder is used to select between two input func-
tions: IBAL and IDIR.
IBAL: This parameter is used to control the input balance of a stereo channel. The
SW key is used to turn this function ON/OFF. Turning the rotary encoder
to the left attenuates the right channel from 0 to -∞ dB (L30) while the left
channel remains at full input level, and vice versa. L30 indicates full right
channel attenuation, 30R indicates full left channel attenuation, and L00R
indicates 0 attenuation on either channel.
IDIR: The rotary encoder is used to control the input direction of a stereo chan-
nel in 1° steps from –30° (left) to +30° (right). The SW key is used to turn
this function ON/OFF. L30 indicates full left, 30R indicates full right, and
L00R indicates the center position.
PWTH: The Pan Width parameter is used to control the width of the stereo signal.
PWTH is only functional if there is a difference between the left and right
input channels, or IBAL or IDIR has been used to create an offset between
the channels. The DIR control directs the position of the stereo signal, and
the PWTH control determines the width or stereo spread either side of that
position. PWTH operates over a range between 0% and 200%. The SW
key activates this function.
