Chapter 6: Surround Features 87 Introduction to Pro T ools Surround Panning There are four different track pa nning methods available: • In the Edit window , using the reduced-height Panner Grid in .
Complete Production T oolkit 2 Guide 88 Output Windows Output windows provide panning controls (called panners), as we ll as standard Pro Tools controls, for tracks of all mix formats (from 3- channel LCR through 8-channel 7.1). For information on Output window standard controls, see “Standard Controls” on page 88.
Chapter 6: Surround Features 89 Surround Panner Controls When assigned to tracks or paths with four or mor e channels, the O utput window p rovides an X/Y Grid for surround panning. The speakers associat ed with the panner’ s multichannel format are dis- played in their relative positions outside the Panner Grid.
Complete Production T oolkit 2 Guide 90 The X/Y Grid and P an Location Cursor The X/Y Grid is where multichanne l panning information is input and displayed. You can in- put pan information using X/Y mode, 3-Knob mode, or by entering numeric values in the Po- sition data fields.
Chapter 6: Surround Features 91 Divergence Controls Divergence determines th e width of the panned signal with respect to neighboring speakers. (For more information, see the Pro T ools Sync & Sur- round Concepts Guide ).
Complete Production T oolkit 2 Guide 92 P anning Modes The Panning Mode button provides access to four panning modes: X/Y mode, Divergence Ed- iting, 3-Knob mode, and AutoGlide mode.

Complete Production T oolkit 2 Guide 96 Divergence In the Panner Grid, the current divergence val- ues are displayed using a purple outline. By default, Pro Tools surround panners are 100% or fully divergent, meaning that a signal that is panned completely to one speaker will only be audible in that speaker.
Chapter 6: Surround Features 97 T o ad just Center Percentage: Adjust the Center Percentage knob as appro- priate. As you reduce the Center Percentage value, the center speaker at the top of the Grid becomes less visible. At 0, the center speaker is com- pletely invisible, reflecting the setting for fully phantom center.
Complete Production T oolkit 2 Guide 98 P an Pla ylists Multichannel panners have an automation playlist for each position and divergence con- trol. Surround Scope Plug-In The Surround Scope plug-i n provides a 360° me- ter for metering multichannel paths during mix- ing.
