Key Features
Sound Particles Energy Panner is a unique sound designer plugin that offers the ability to automatically pan audio tracks within your mix based on their intensity. From traditional stereo to immersive binaural and Dolby Atmos, Energy Panner changes how you view sound in a 3D space. Using proprietary analysis tools, you can dynamically move tracks across the spatial field to add excitement and energy to your mixes. Move your drums in surround sound motion based on the attack or widen synths to a huge stereo field on the soft decay and explore sound design in a completely new way.
Two modes of operation are presented in a sleek and intuitive interface. Panning mode offers the ability to move audio from point to point in a traditional sense whereas Sliding Mode allows you to create your own customised trajectory based on a threshold level. For creativity with every press, a built-in randomizer creates a new panning solution to experiment with non-linear panning motions.
A must-have for all sound designers, Energy Panner is the most intuitive way to utilise an often overlooked aspect of creative effects, letting your audience engage in a surreal surround sound experience.
Product Ref: 220087
An often underappreciated aspect of the creative process, panning your instruments can have a profound impact on the energy and movement of your tracks. Energy Panner offers a unique solution for placing your tracks across the stereo field based on the intensity of each track. Using proprietary analysis algorithms, Energy Panner determines the intensity of your audio and lets you move them from stereo, Dolby Atmos, 7.1 or even Binaural outputs. Imagine moving your drums on the beat, panning your staccato synths to the attack or even spreading your vocals on the soft tail of your note and this is what Energy Panner can do for you.
With two modes of operation, Energy Panner enables complete control over your dynamic movement within your mix. Panning mode works much like a traditional panner, allowing you to move your sound source from one point to another. This is a user-defined point-to-point system where you can choose to move your heavy drums one from point in the stereo field to the next to create a moving drum loop that adds interest and excitement to electronic music productions.
Alternatively, the Sliding Mode offers a more nuanced approach, whereby you can create trajectory entirely to your design. Whenever the audio reaches a certain set threshold value, the sound source will move however not return to the starting point when complete. Instead, the sound source will freeze in that position until the audio exceeds the threshold again.
For such a powerful and flexible tool, a sleek and innovative interface is needed. Presented via a single on-screen controller appropriately named 'The Dome', the interface of the Energy Panner is designed to be user friendly straight out of the box, providing everything you need to make adjustments in one screen. Extracting all possible parameters and avenues for sound design in Energy Panner is done on one screen, saving time by eliminating the need for any tedious and time-consuming menu-diving. Employing a single drag and drop design, you can customise the panning parameters within The Dome by hand to draw in your customised changes.
The surrounding parameters house the flexible sound design options that Energy Panner has to offer, without being overly complicated. A simple two-way switch above The Dome changes the mode of operation which will correspond to a change in colour, while switches to the left will adjust the different types of movement available.
"Energy Panner has totally revolutionized my stereo imagery in a mix. What would have taken me hours to do in automation, Energy Panner does it in minutes." - Jayce Lewis
"A sophisticated and unusual plugin with some unique features, and is capable of generating creative and pleasing panning effects with considerable versatility. It copes seamlessly with multichannel immersive and surround sound formats." - Hugh Robjohns - Sound on Sound
