ass backwards on pan law

[Chuck Duffy]

due to a brain fart while thinking about a linear wet/dry calculation
I posted some really wrong stuff about pan law.

Pan law should not affect signals panned hard left, or hard right -
not "straight up" as I posted.

A single channel panned hard left, with fader at zero, with no effects
or eq should result in nearly identical or identical bounces on
different systems.

Cast iron, stainless, or that modurn won't-stick stuff?

How 'bout "over easy", or is that too much of a mess?

But it never happens like that. One always oozes into the other, and
there you are.

Yeah, most folks do panpots this way, but Yamaha doesn't. 12 o'clock
is the unity gain point for them. The trick is to know what gets done
inside your rig. Unfortunately, none of us have the ability to do
anything about panpot laws in modern digital mixers other than dealing
with what someone else provided for us. It's not like the analog days
where one could open up the console and change it if you didn't like
it...

This is true for a mono input channel. For a stereo input channel, hard
L-R is the unity gain point on my Yamaha - a very useful arrangement in
my book.
