Displays the name of the currently selected factory preset PAN waves.

--WAVE--

Eight waves are offered with 'Sine' being the PAN wave conventionally
used. The variety of waveforms include:

Sine

Duo Sine

Tri Sine

Triangle

Steps

Ramp

Wide Sqr

Square.

Out

Out gives the standard PAN Effect which sweeps from one channel to the

PHASE

other, ie. the amplitude of one channel increases as the other decreases.
PHASE set to

In results in a tremolo type effect where the gains of both

channels are varied together. If PAN is only assigned to one channel this
parameter will have no perceivable function.

DOWN

The second parameter screen has four further parameters which only take
effect if the PAN TRIGGER SOURCE is set to a parameter other than

Off

Off.

PAN TRIGGER PARAMETERS DISPLAY

Once PAN is triggered this allows the pan to continue for the time set.

TIME-ReTRIG

Normally to hear the full PAN sweep, this time would be equal-to, or just
greater than the sweep RATE set on the page above. It can be set to

Off

or set between

2ms

2ms through to

20S

20Seconds.

This permits the setting of the PAN start position, of course for the effect

ReTRIG-POS

to be heard

will need to be set to some value. The parameter

RANGE

ranges from

9< being fully Left to

>9 fully Right with

<> being Dead

centre.

Sets the signal level THRESHOLD to trigger the PAN, but only valid when

THRSH-Trig

TrigSOURCE is set to

Audio

Audio. This can be more easily done using the

facilities on THRESH A correct threshold setting would be just below
the peak signal input level. The parameter range has been restricted from

-20dB

-20dB through to

+18dB

Off

Trig-SOURCE

Permits PAN to free-run, hence

TIME-ReTrig-POS

THRSH-Trig

parameters and

(on the page below) have no effect.

EnvATTACK/DECAY

Audio

Trig-SOURCE

Enables the THREShold parameter. A correct threshold setting would be
just below the peak signal input level.

MIDIbeat

Trig-SOURCE

This option uses the MIDI

setting to select the trigger

TRIG TIME

pulse frequency, usually a setting of several beats would be used. A very
fast time count eg.

0 Bts

0 Bts and

2 Frms

2 Frms would be inaudible under most

conditions.
