Beat Panner from Sound Particles is an effects plugin for stereo width that moves a signal across the field in step-based patterns, so the panning follows a rhythm rather than a single fixed position.

What Beat Panner does
The plugin sequences panning with up to 32 steps per channel, so the placement of a sound changes over time instead of sitting still. Four independent sequence patterns can be stored in one instance, and the developer describes jumping between them as a way to add variation and contrast within a single session. Transitions can be set to smooth or to sharp, rhythmic jumps, and the developer lists float, divergence and subtle options for shaping the movement between steps. The plugin runs mono, stereo and multichannel formats up to 5.1.
Key features
- Step-based sequencing. Movement patterns are built from up to 32 steps per channel, so each channel follows its own sequence of positions across the stereo or multichannel field.
- Transition character. Transitions can be set to smooth glides or to sharp, rhythmic jumps, with float, divergence and subtle options for shaping how the movement feels between steps.
- Built-in mixer and spatial views. A built-in mixer and a virtual center control set the balance, and several stereo and 3D views visualize where each channel sits.
- Presets and random generation. Dozens of presets are included, and a Random Dice control generates new sequences as a starting point.
- Panning sequencer. The developer contrasts it with standard panners that only place a sound, since the sequencer turns a rhythm into movement across the field.
Compatibility
Formats are VST3, VST2, AU and AAX for Windows and macOS (64-bit), with native Apple Silicon support listed. Minimum systems are macOS 10.15 and Windows 10, and the plugin requires 4 GB of RAM.
