Default Re: Altiverb XL + Stereo/Quadro IRs - Good for LCR?

The only problem with center level on Altiverb in my experience is it defaults to off on 5.1 verbs.
So if you change your impulse it switches off again.
Once its written on for a scene, it stays on.
I've never had a problem with it and you can balance the amount of reverb in the center to your taste without affecting any other channel.

In Protools you can not re-pan a 5.1 into 5.1 (like re-pan the surrounds a bit more towards the fronts). Spanner allows you to do stuff like this.
Good point. I was thinking of outputting Altiverb in stereo to LCR. But you're right, my Altiverb XL is on a 5.0 track in surround mode, so no bleeding possible with PT panner...

This might be fixed by now though, I hardly use Altiverb, but it was there for while.
Good to know, thanks for the hint!

I can't confirm this. With convergence, L/R position and center level adjustment in PT panner, I have full control... I'm using PT 10 HD - maybe the panner changed in more recent versions?
