How do you pan in GB 10.2.0?

on several tracks (vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards)...some recorded with mic, some direct, some midi. I try to change it via the little [pan] knob,[...] the knob turns, but nothing happens to the pan; only the volume seems to be effected.

if the volume is changing when you change the Pan, it sounds like you're working on a stereo track that has a mono recording (like a mic or guitar). check that the Mono/Stereo button is set to mono for these tracks:

several people discuss having problems with the newest version of GB...panning being just one. Have you heard anything like that? Is there any way I can "re-load" GB?

yours is the first report i've read about a panning issue, however even though we use several machines across a couple of studios, none have upgraded macOS past 10.12.5

a thought for a workaround occurs; you might try using the Direction Mixer plug-in for now so that you can get back to work right away. a direction of -90 to +90 is hard left to hard right:

you're going to have to post more details about what you're doing (what did you record, how did you record it, etc), because panning has worked the same way since version 1

but when I click on the "Automation parameter pop up window" for any particular track, and select "Pan", the pan doesn't change...whether I try to change it via the little knob, or the "automation track" yellow line that runs through each track.

it is still not quite clear, sorry. Do you not hear the panned signal from a different position , when you change the or is it not possible to turn the knob from left to right or change the automation curve?

forgot this part...

you'd need to have kept a backup copy, for instance using macOS' built-in Time Machine backup software.

any chance you could upload a small project that displays the issue? perhaps make a new one with just a single track of a couple of seconds of recording that won't pan.
