Pan and Tremolo Pack 2.0

This pack includes four custom BPM-sync’ed MOD FX for the Prologue, Minilogue XD, and NTS-1, adding rhythm and stereo width.

• Panner2
• Tremolo2
• FilterPan1
• FilterPan2

All pan and tremolo effects make use of the system Tempo, so they can be synchronized to be in time when required, and changes in LFO speed are natural and musical, with the use of a good dose of parameter lag and smoothing.

Panner2 / Tremolo2

Both effects use Depth and Speed as you might expect, but each knob is multi-functional.

The Depth knob is divided into two halves, with the first half of the knob selecting the amount of the triangle-wave LFO. At the mid-way point, the LFO changes to a square-wave, with the depth starting from zero again and increasing to full depth of the square wave when turned fully clockwise.

The Time knob is also divided into two sections, with the first two thirds being a manual LFO speed control from slow to fast. The last third of the control changes the subdivision of the beat in Tempo Sync mode, with the slowest sync setting at the far end of the control. With this feature, and the built-in speed change suppression, the effect can really be ‘played’ during a performance.

FilterPan1 / FilterPan2

These effects make use of two split-frequency bands, that each have their own separate auto-pan LFOs with rates different (but related) to each other. This leads to a stereo panning/phasing effect that can add a lot of width and movement.

FilterPan1 has a fixed crossover frequency, but more control over the LFO speeds.

The Depth knob is divided into two halves, with the first half of the knob selecting the amount of the triangle-wave LFO. At the mid-way point, the LFO changes to a square-wave, with the depth starting from zero again and increasing to full depth of the square wave when turned fully clockwise.

The Time knob is also divided into two sections, with the first two thirds being a manual LFO speed control from slow to fast. The last third of the control changes the subdivision of the beat in Tempo Sync mode, with the slowest sync setting at the far end of the control.

FilterPan2 allows control over the crossover frequency by using the ‘Time’ parameter.

Tweaking the crossover frequency in real time, has an unusual (but pleasant!) modulation effect that brings together filter, phase and pan effects all at the same time. Assign this to the mod wheel, or control via MIDI CC etc. to make the most of this when you need to!

With the Time knob used up for filter frequency duties, the rate of the LFOs is set only by the System Tempo. This does, of course, reduce the amount of independent control over the speed of the panning, but does add a unique and usable stereo effect.

The Depth knob is divided into two halves in the same way as FilterPan1.
