two channel equal power square root panner

information

Two channel equal power panner. About is about 3dB center reduction. With linear panning ([pan.lin~]) the signal is lowered as it approaches center using a straight line from (+-)1 (left or right) to 0 (center) for a 6dB reduction in the middle. A problem inherent to linear panning is that the perceived volume of the signal drops in the middle. [pan.sqrt~] solves this.

arguments:

• POS panning position. -1 means left, 0 - center, +1 - right
