Gpan Comes Thru again!

The free G-Sonic G-pan plugin saved me the other night.
I had a client doing a vocal over a "karaoke" track, the CD track had music left and backup vocals right. I ripped it directly into vegas. When I tried to pan Left to get music only...i still heard the backups! When panned Right, the music bled into the backup vocals...dont know why, that should not have been the case, but it was.

So I loaded up Gpan on the track, and pulled down the vocal track, then panned the music up the center and all was well.

I also tried out the trial version of G-image that comes with Gpan and it is an amazing stereo imager right out of the box! Very realistic.

Thanks again, PL

PS
Another free plugin is iZoptope Vinyl - scratchy record simulation plugin.
Very cool...and free. If you get it, check out what happens when you decide to click on the rivets on the face of the plugin interface.
Hilarious!
I can't wait to see what other kinds of hidden tricks are in there.

hi, i think all you have to do is right click over top of the pan fader on the track in question, and change the settings from "add channels" to "constant power". this may help you with the pan problem.

also, you may want to save the default track settings with this pan selection so all future tracks you open are set with it.

cheers

hmmm, didn't know about that!
If that is true, i'm surprised constant power wouldn't be the default setting.
then again, i'm not surprised, as alot of "default" things in vegas need immediate changing once you load up the program. Such as:
1) recording at 48khz, not 44,100
2) vegas directory as default wav file save folder (that one has cost me dearly)

i'll try it, thanks J.
