Pan

Menu Command: Effect | Stereo | Pan

Use the to alter the left and right balance. The shape graph is divided into green and red regions, representing the left and right channels respectively. The line, initially located between the regions, represents the center for panning. By bending and/or moving the line, you can dynamically alter the sound's left/right balance over time or pan to and from each channel.

Show balance
Calculates and displays the current peak balance in yellow on the graph. For a typicaly stereo song, a spiked line roughly centered around zero would appear. For a 2 channel mono file, it would be a perfectly flat line at zero. For an unbalanced file, the line would be above or below zero.

Change volume only
Limits the pan effect to volume changes only. Normally panning mixes the left and right channels to alter the balance. This setting prevents any mixing and changes the relative volumes of the channels.
