What it does
- Rhythmic auto panner with six panning modes, including LFO, step and random.
- Recreates the trigger divider of the PanScan hardware, which moves to a new position after a set number of triggers.
- Panning can follow a mouse click, host automation or the level of incoming audio, with a filter on the trigger.
- Step mode and Shape mode build patterns, and you can draw your own pan shapes.
- Seven analog modes add saturation when driven.
