chapelier fou

i am working on a patch to move a sound source on 4 speakers using a lcd. The basic concept works, but i'm not happy with the result : being in a corner makes only 1 speaker play (that's what i want), but in the center, the volume is pretty low. I think some maths (log, exp, or something like this ?) would easily solve the problem.

If anyone has the chance to have a look... Thanks !

as a side question, is there a way to ignore the mouse position when it goes outside the lcd ?

 help file, specifically the tab marked "mousing." You may find some useful hints there.

second question:
control a gate by clipping the coords.
i would use if:

A good way to do equal-power panning in MSP is to use a [buffer~] containing a square root or a cosine curve as a look up table.

Take a look at the MSP spatialisation examples in the Extras/ Examples Overview menu option. I think pan4s and the quad-spatialiser would be useful to you.

Damn, the quad-spatialiser seems to be just ready-made.

Just need to get used to it.
Thank you !
