(pot)
1. In a mono signal, a control that adjusts the amount the signal goes to
the right or left channels of a stereo output (or selected odd/even number
subgroups on a mixer). To pan a signal hard left (all of the way to the left)
is to send the signal only to the left channel, panning it hard right sends it
to the right channel only. If the control is left in the center position, the
signal is sent equally to both the left and right channels.
2. Panoramic potentiometer; the component, circuit, or control that allows a
signal to be panned.
3. A balance control.
