What it does

Combo panner built from scratch

Illustrates how to build a stereo auto-panner by multiplying a mono audio signal by separate "left" and "right" amplitude modulation signals which are then "zipped up" to form a stereo output. The "Combo Control Generator" is used to generate the modulation control signal (which varies between 0 and 1) with a user-selectable wave shape. The "One minus Control" block is used to distribute that portion of the signal power which is not going to the left channel.This is only one example of how to distibute the signal between the channels. Other variations on the theme are, of course, entirely possible.
