<p>
  For stereo tracks, you can now switch between the stereo panner and a
  traditional <strong>balance control</strong> by right-clicking on the
  panner widget.

<p>
  When the balance is centered, the incoming signals will be unaffected.
  Moving it to one side will linearly attenuate the signal of the opposite
  side.

  While the balance control is considerably less flexible than the stereo 
  panner, it works with arbitrary content without danger of introducing
  comb filter artefacts.
