Working on a piece for 4 frontal speakers.

Trying to make controller for gain between the 4 speakers set up in a row. How ever I cannot seem to figure out how to reverse engineer all these patches that are meant for speakers in four corners of the room or 5.1.

Would like to use the pict slider or LCD.

Far left is the speaker one, far right is speaker 4, in between is speaker 2 and 3. On an x and y coordinate system X is the gain amount between the 4 speakers and Y is the over all level.

just a row from left to right? if you dont want to broaden the source to over "from 1 point", you can just make that based on equal power panning for stereo.

Thanks for the tips but I am more looking to modify this patch to move the sounds around. Anyone have any tips on how to mod the system so the along the x axis the marker determines the location of the sound in the speaker field and the y corresponds to the gain amount? At a loss

I've modded Christopher's patch to include control with a pictslider. 

moving stuff around is what these patches are doing essentially.

your problem with the X axis is solved by looking at it as an individual problem: you do not need to do any maths here between position and gain, gain can be applied somewhere else.

while Y can be done like like above, X can be done with a single [*~ 0.] object to either all n inputs or to all 4 outputs.

oh btw. i also have this old patch with another approach.

in your case add a [clip~ 1. 4.] before it.

I appreciate everyones help! But I'll I want to do is use a slider to do some math, math that I do not understand how to apply:P

Basically how do I expand this rslider to do what I want......

there is no rslider in this patch, there is only a normal slider.

for what i see in this patch you could perfectly use my abstraction from above.

or do you want to broaden the source direction using an rslider?

...when i start with your style the math could look like that (picture)

but there appears alwas a certain problem when using GUI object with [split] - this is left as exercise here.

Wow makes so much sense!! Thanks so much. Now just to figure out how to control that number with out the system acting weird.

yes, thats the problem with such quick sketches.

my example works fine when you send single numbers into it.

but as soon as these numbers are coming from a GUI control the trouble begins, when you try to use the [split] object as a replacement for a proper arithmetic / logic solution.
