@David-Pook Sounds like ambient music with a deep bass sound that alternates in the left and right audio channel.

You should be able to create those bass sounds with any synthesizer that has a sine wave oscillator.

Either create two tracks and set the pan to left and right or automate the pan for a single channel.

Forgive me, but.......... how can you pan in music maker? I like the idea of copying a track and then setting one to left and the other to right, but bit unsure how to do that but then we also have the problem that the sound should creep from left to right and right to left throughout the whole track. Is that even possible in MusicMaker??

@David-Pook  Have you worked with "Volume Curves"? It's the same idea, but you're defining a pan curve instead.

(Edit)

1) for individual objects on a track: Right-click on the desired track, and in the popup menu, select [Automation] >> [Automation for this Object], and choose "Panorama"

2) for the whole track: Click the "Fx" button at the left-hand end of the track, and select "Panorama" from the menu.

Note: these are based on MM2024. I think MM2021-and-up should be similar.

If you're looking for a method to create an "autopan", where the sound "automatically" moves from left to right and vice versa, have a look at the Free FX Bundle from Melda Productions here. It includes an autopanner!

Once the bundle is installed, on your bass track you simply insert the plugin as a VST 2, or 3 if your version of MM can handle the version 3 type. It includes the facility to set the rate of panning etc.

Thank you, that is a great free bundle. Installed and it works as I want it. Much easier with a plugin that just "does it"! Thank you so much
