Energy Panner 2 — Panning That Reacts to Your Sound

Energy Panner 2 is a panning plugin that listens to the intensity of your audio and turns it into motion. The louder a sound gets, the further it moves across the stereo or 3D sound field, creating organic movement without drawing a single automation lane. It runs as AAX, AU, and VST3 on Mac and Windows, dropping into virtually any modern DAW.

What Makes It Stand Out

Most panners ask you to draw every movement by hand. This plugin reads the actual volume of your audio and translates it into motion, so the performance itself drives the panning. Two movement modes — Pan Mode for back-and-forth motion and Sliding Mode for forward sweeps — give you two different behaviors from the same trigger, while a sidechain input lets you trigger panning from any external signal in your mix.

Who It's For

Energy Panner 2 is the right choice for producers and sound designers who want their tracks to feel alive without spending hours on automation. Beginners will appreciate the 25+ presets and random preset generator, while more advanced users can shape the response with threshold, ratio, attack, and release controls. It fits stereo and immersive 3D audio workflows equally well, making it useful for music, film, and game audio alike.
