Tweak
The tweak button in Rhythm Shape mode will open up the dynamics panel.
This is the same as the dynamics panel for LFO mode, except there is no
Rate Mod. See the description of the dynamics panel in LFO mode for a
description of all the dynamic modulation options
Random Mode
Random mode allows you to pan to a new, random position at rhythmic
intervals. It’s pretty simple and sounds great on just about everything.
Simply use the Rhythm selector and the Tempo control to choose a beat
length. Every beat, PanMan will pan to a new position. Use Smoothing to
control how hard the jump is, and offset and width to control the range of
possible positions. No tweak here. Just pure and simple random panning
Triggered Modes
PanMan has two “triggered” modes that both work on the same principle:
when the incoming audio reaches a certain level, a pan transition will
happen. The only difference between the two is what pattern the
transitions follow. We describe both modes here and then their common
controls. These modes are super useful for percussive instruments or other
sources with lots of transients!
