Add Panning controls to each clip

Have any feature requests? No promise they'll get to Reason Studios, but you can still discuss them here.

This topic probably should be merge into other similar Panning topics.

I would love to be able to pan each individual clip in the sequencer. Every new note lane could be panned separately

This would allow something crazy like creating a different clip for each note in a piano solo covering 3 octaves then pan each clip across the stereo field. This would also allow you to not have to use stereo image plugins saving on system resources.

Just a thought. I don't want you guys to spend a lot of time or resources for something like this unless everyone else wants it.

Whats wrong with duplicating the device? Exact control for panning, AND for the room!

I personally never needed that, but what i someties like is panning according the played key to give the listener the impression there is a player in front of him - and this is easily done.

Why not a pan per note, not clip?

How would that even be possible? Does any daw do that? This is something you can do via mod matrix in most synths too

I could do that, this time in theory only: Props could add a command-bridge to a mixer's pan.

Oh, I was thinking that you meant each note has different pan settings while playing chords, etc. That would be impossible as far as I know, unless some synth supported it? Don't know..

Everything that is possible in workarounds, are always possible to be added as a new feature. But chord-panning would be possible only, by creating 3 instances of the same instrument? And can't be done with 1 instrument? And we live in 2018? Hmmm, is midi-related stuff a standard in all the DAWs?

What do i miss? Just add note->pan in a mod matrix and you are done.

I must have missed that you only talked about samplers and not synths.

Depends on your sampler. If the sampler does not support it, it can be easily recreated.

I didn't mention I was talking about synths only, which usually means I talked about everything.

That is not midi standard AFAIK. You might probably ask in the midi standardization forum for it. I can understand why you ask for such a feature - it would be cool to turn the finger left/right on a rolli to pan left/right.

Yeah, well, hope the Props read this and they ask for it directly from the midi-developers then. I thought midi is a an open-source tbh.

Support for per-clip or per-note panning would need to be implemented individually into every RE and VST instrument. Otherwise, Reason (or any other sequencer program) could be made to send them any sort of MIDI data it wants, but the instruments aren't going to know what to do with it.

Though now that you mention it, there's no reason not to have panning on AUDIO clips, same as level - not sure there would be ANY advantage/difference in doing it at the clip level fwiw.
