Hi, can anyone help me? I'm trying to modulate the pan control on my patch using a matrix~ going into pan2 object. I figured I need to connect to the middle left inlet so it can go from left to right but this only accepts max numbers. Is it possile to convert a signal to a float or is there a simpler way to do this?

pan-mod

i don't really understand what you want to do, but to convert from 

signal to float, look at snapshot~ and maybe peakamp~.

but maybe it's because i'm tired, but what do you exactly want and

why this way?

look at snapshot~, it will convert an audio rate signal

look at snapshot~, it will convert an audio rate signal 
into a control signal.

sorry i'm also tired and not being clear. I am using matrix~ and matrixctrl to have a simple modulation matrix and so far managed to get the LFO to modulate the pitch of an oscillator but I can't get it to modulate the pan and not sure what else I can modulate because I can't connect the signal outputs of matrix~ to the float/int inlets. 

Also I tried connecting to the filter cut off but it has no modulation effect. I think It's because i need to scale the outputs of matrix~ but i can't use scale for the signals.
