Soundtoys PanMan 5 is a dynamic and creative auto-panning plug-in designed to give your mixes motion, width, and rhythmic interest. Whether you want subtle stereo enhancement or full-blown spatial effects, PanMan lets you take control over the stereo field in ways traditional pan controls never could.
With a range of panning styles, tempo-syncable modulation, and trigger-based effects, PanMan allows you to craft everything from vintage auto-pan sweeps to cutting-edge rhythmic movement. Built-in analog-modeled saturation adds extra character, while the modulation section lets you dial in everything from slow evolving pans to fast, glitchy jumps.
