# 2.2. Panning slider

With this slider you can control the volume distribution between left and right speaker. This slider is an overall regulator, which affects all stereo devices (Mono devices are ignored). The middle position is the default. Dragging the slider to the left lowers the volume of the right speaker, dragging it to the right vice versa. The panning slider has a context menu which you can reach with the right mouse button. You can set the slider to some prominent positions with this menu.
