Yes that would solve it; but I'm using PT on 3 different OS's, so using stand-alone is much simpler, and rock-solid, and I very much like to have the auto midi-recording On all the time.

Might as well use an auto-pan effect in your DAW or something...

Again, you're right, Sine wave is there...
And yes it's possible to enter very small values; still, while Tremolo can work as an auto-panner, it feels a bit clumsy, because of the small values needed (by me), which are between 0 and 0.00; in between 0 and 0.00 are several values. I think it's easiest using it via MIDI-automation, which will work fine, because you can limit the reach of the controller values.
So just a very non-urgent request for a dedicated Auto-pan, which should focus on smaller values and has random shape as option.

You can click on the Shape waveform and move mouse UP-DOWN to round it or square it, or move it LEFT-RIGHT to change the skew. If you need more precision, right-click it then you get to edit both these parameters via direct value entry. Sine wave is absolutely there - which is what you'd want for autopan. Then it's a matter of tweaking the depth and rate to your taste.

Hey, you're right, cool!
Although... it's not subtle enough for my taste, I think it's because of the shape; which is too regular, or or not "rounded" enough.
And it's only usable in extreme settings (very low Rate and Depth ). Anyway, almost there, I'll change the request.

Use Tremolo by default is in stereo mode (when Mono button is off), so it's basically acting like autopan

I would like to see an Auto-pan effect in Pianoteq. The main reason is that I like to put a very subtle Auto-panner just before the Reverb; this gives a very lively effect, mayby similar to moving your head a little while listening.
Can be simple; something like the Tremolo effect: Rate, Depth and Shape; best would be a random shape, or a random like shape.
Thanks!

Edit: Evil Dragon is right:it's basically the Tremolo effect I'm asking for. But it would be nice it it could be different than that: better adjustable low values for Depth and Rate; and rounded (sinuslike) / random Shape. Now the best setting is somewhere in between 0 db and 0.00 db ;-)
