Sound Particles Beat Panner

Beat Panner is a creative panning sequencer that makes your sounds move in perfect sync with the beat of your track.

Define your movement patterns and make your sounds swirl, glide, and travel around you.

Panning That Follows Your Groove

Beat-synced panning is exactly what it sounds like: drop Beat Panner on a track, sync it to your DAW, and choose how the movement follows the timing of your track, using our pre-existing movements or creating your own custom patterns.

You're not just placing sounds anymore, you're composing motion in an easy and intuitive way.

Beat Panner gives you total rhythmic control over where your sound lives in space, with fantastic results in stereo and being indispensable for immersive workflows.

Create Your Movement

Create your sequences with up to 32 steps per channel, shaping rhythmic movement that stays in sync with your track's tempo.

Humanize Your Mix

Add micro-movements and subtle position variations, ensuring your sequences feel organic and alive rather than repetitive.

Add Multipattern Creativity

Break free from repetitive panning by jumping between 4 sequence patterns within a single instance of the plugin.

Stereo Mode

In stereo mode, move one handler and the other follows - mirrored or linked at 60°, 90°, or 180° angle.

Total Spatial Freedom

Design panning not only left to right, but around the listener, in whatever format you’d like. Space is your blank canvas.

Step-Based Movement

Design precise movement with up to 32 steps per channel.

• Glide - Go from hard jumps to smooth transitions between each step, exploring the rhythmic flow of your sound.
• Sequence Direction - Run your sequence forward, backward, in a "ping-pong" loop, or in a completely randomized order.
• Delay Offset - Delay or anticipate the step movement regarding the beat, for emotional impact.
• Freeze Steps - Temporarily disable some steps to hold their position.
• Float - Bring life to your mix by adding tiny movements inside each step, for additional spatial detail.
• Divergence - Introduce subtle position variations that give your movement a more natural, organic feel.

Advanced Controls

See your sound move. Shape it with precision.

• 3D Views - Take the guesswork out of spatial mixing; visualize your movement from multiple stereo and 3D perspectives.
• Room View - The room view turns panning into a visual experience. Shape movement instinctively and hear results faster.
• Multichannel - Design for any environment, from traditional stereo to 7.1.4 immersive rigs, Ambisonics, and beyond.
• Built-in Mixer - Maintain absolute control over your signal by adjusting the level for every output channel.
• Restart Pattern - Decide exactly where the sequence begins on your project timeline, for total rhythmic sync.
• Virtual Center - Keep the center channel empty (for dialogue or lead instruments), distributing its content to the left and right speakers.

Your Mix Is No Longer Standing Still

Some effects change your sound, others change how people feel it.

Discover unexpected rhythms, evolving motion, and new stereo and spatial ideas with a workflow designed to encourage creativity.

From a subtle movement that adds life and depth, to complex sequences that completely transform the energy of a track, Beat Panner opens new possibilities for how sound can move and interact with the listener.
