Chapter 11: Panning
The PRO6 has two main types of panning mode, default and surround. The default
mode comprises stereo and LCR panning formats, and only uses the channels for the
front loudspeakers, while the surround mode includes channels for the rear surround
loudspeakers.
The following table shows the panning formats available on the PRO6.
Table 3: Panning formats
Key: L = left; R = right; C = centre; Lr = left rear; Rr = right rear; Ls = left surround;
Rs = right surround; S = surround; LFE = low frequency effects (usually handled by a
subwoofer)

“Setting the configuration preferences” on page 227).
