I’m only a week or so into Renoise but my question is about timing. If i Wanted to pan 5 seconds left then 5 seconds right and then back to center; how would I go about that?
Thanks,

normally users should not “think in seconds”: they should rather think in beats and/or lines.
your problem would then be easily solved using an LFO device with “TracVolPan => Panning” as destination.
if for example BPM is set to 60 and LPB to 4, then 5 seconds would equal to 5 beats, so 5*4 = 20 lines.
you should then set a square-shaped LFO with 40 LPC of frequency.
try copying the following text, rightclick the Track DSP section and choose “Paste device”

thanks I actually posted this because a friend asked me and couldn’t think of it in seconds myself. I appreciate the explanation.
