Panning with variable HP positions
Posted: 13 Jun 2022, 15:26
Hello.
Here is a particular situation for which I am looking for a practical solution.
I am using a sound layout with 5 speakers. It's not 5.1 or 5.0, but 5 speakers placed in a landscape. The position of these 5 speakers is never the same. However, 1-2 always act as fronts and 3-4 as backs.
On the other hand, 5 can be in the far front, far back, far left or far right, depending on the landscape we are playing in.
I use a midi sampler that plays audio files on 5 tracks with panning mouvements. For example, the sound starts in 5 (far front) then goes to 1-2 (front) then 3-4 (back).
I'm looking for a way to keep this movement regardless of the position of 5. If for example 5 is far left, then that same sound goes from 5 to 1-3 (left side) then 2-4 (right side).
I would like to avoid changing the patch wiring depending on the speaker setup, as the same midi sampler at other times plays traditionally on only the 4 speakers (front and rear).
I am interested in your ideas.
Thanks a lot and have a nice day.
