Orbits processes the left and right inputs independently with a pair of modulated delay/auto panners. This effect can be used to create spatial effects via a com- bination of Doppler and level pan- ning.

In the Orbits effect, Pulse Width controls allowindependent adjust- ment of left and right LFOs from full left to full right skew. (At 0, the sinewave becomes a sawtooth with a fast rise and slow fall.) Depth controls provide adjustment ofMod and Pan depth from 0-100%. Width allows adjustment of the panning depth from 0 (mono) to 100 (maxi- mum stereo spread).
