I was pretty disappointed when I discovered the Dolby Music Panner is not included with Pro Tools for use with the internal renderer. But thanks for this video, it makes me feel excited again about starting my first Atmos mix. Great tips. Hopefully Avid will release something similar to the Dolby panner in the future.

Thanks for the shortcuts. Great stuff

Really great Dave. I’ve been a console fader/knob guy my whole career and have recently been working with guys proficient at panning with the mouse and keyboard. Your tutorial explains exactly the tricks I need to work faster.

Hi Dave, Thanks a lot for the great insights! Your videos are really helpful! I was wondering if you know a way of write enabling only one part of the protools panner? Use case example: using touch I write this amazing height-automation, but the X/Y automation needs to be more dynamic. So I would like to write-protect the height parameter, but write to all the other parameters of the panner as normal. The opposite could also be a use case.. My workaround right now is to write the dynamic height automation first, copy it to a spare track, then write the xy automation on the wanted track using latch/touch, and then paste the height automation I did at the start, from the spare track.. But this makes panning quite a pain.. Another use case could be to disable writing for things like the Height mode, or the divergence, or the Side%.. This would make pan automation this much more fun in protools, so would love your thoughts on that

I don't think you can get that granular in safing pan automation parameters. It might be nice since things get so much more complicated in immersive, but seeing that it hasn't happened with surround workflows I wouldn't expect to see it coming. You never know, though....

Great video Dave, Do you know why when you edit a stereo object panner lane it only edits the channel you edit even though 'Link channels' is enabled?

That drives me nuts in Pro Tools. I consider it a bug. It's probably part of why I try not to do anything in the panning automation lanes.

Hi Dave, I thought to have seen a video from you where you talk about putting the vocal in the middle. What I mean by this is not the center channel, but the actual middle of the room. So the vocal is heard from everywhere even when you turn your head. If you've talked about this in a video, can you tell me which one this is? And are there any other elements in the mix that could also benefit from this panning?

I've probably talked about this in different videos as I discourage this kind of thing since it can create a lot of phase issues in speakers. Here's one video where I probably get into it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZI2WzbqdgbvMaaQ.html

Thx for the vid. How do you animate the green objects in the dolby atmos renderer window? I can't figure it out from the Stratosphere demo. Help. I'm in binaural monitor mode.

Objects with audio passing show up that way in the Dolby Atmos Renderer. I wish I could help, but I'm unfamiliar with Stratosphere.

@@srnd1247 You just assign a track to an object. Then you have to make sure the object control mode is turned on.

Do you know why the "duplicate Dolby Atmos plugin automation to pan automation" option is greyed out for me? I just can't click it.

I'm guessing you don't have any plug-in automation written to the track.
