1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,280 Using your DAW’s standard panning tool doesn't actually do what you think it 2 00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:03,540 does. 3 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,440 This dial right here is what we call balance control. 4 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:08,680 It's not actual stereo panning. 5 00:00:08,820 --> 00:00:11,600 So it basically just lowers the volume of the other side. 6 00:00:11,780 --> 00:00:15,660 So if I go here, it's pulled the right side volume all the way down. 7 00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:18,900 And for the opposite, it's pulled the left side volume all the way down. 8 00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:21,340 And an easy solution to this is Conductor Stage, 9 00:00:21,460 --> 00:00:24,600 a plugin that I've developed that actually emulates an environment 10 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,360 that you can put your instruments in. 11 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,200 So if you plug all your instruments into the multitrack function, 12 00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:32,340 it'll take your mix from sounding like this 13 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,920 to sounding like this
