Panning from L to R or R to L...

[dStx]

Hey fam,

I'm interested in putting some long, washy synth chords or horns or strings in some tracks, but I want them to start in one side (L) and move to the other (R). I know there is the trem/pan effect but that doesn't seem to do what I want (it kind of just makes it pulse or pan back and forth). I have to try it again after work to see if I can slow it down so that it will only go from L to R once... Is that how you guys pan things from side to side? Or is there another way?

Thx

if you have a mixer with pan you could run the synth through that before you run in into the sp.

Yo, just do it in your synth with one of its modulators, maybe a sine lfo... you could record the synth line an octave higher in doubletime, use the 404's panner effect on its slowest setting, and then slow/pitch the sample down an octave. Remember we're in the ghetto here, purposefully so. You'll get all kinds of artifacts (what we call character). I'd never recommend this to a sane person, but the 404 is all about insanity, innit?
