Changing the panning law of a stereo mixture is often impossible when the original multitrack session cannot be retrieved or used, or when the mixing desk uses a fixed panning law. Yet such a modification would be of interest during tape mastering sessions, among other applications. We present a frequency-based algorithm that computes the panorama power ratio from stereo signals and changes the panning law without altering the original panorama.
