Inverse Linked Panning
When linked and set to Inverse mode, panning
moves are inverted or reversed in the other
channels.
Inverse panning reflects one side’s location and
direction in the other side. For example, when
enabled for Front Inverse, if you pan one side of
a stereo track output from right to left, the other
side will exactly mirror that movement and pan
left to right.
Front Inverse linking is available on all systems.
Rear Inverse, and Front/Rear Inverse linking are
available on Pro Tools|HD systems only, and
only appear as options on multichannel plug-
ins and panners/output windows.
To enable inverse linking:
1
Enable the Link icon.
2
Select an Inverse mode.
