EE Panning is a way to pan a stereo track without losing the sound balance between the two tracks.

A changing balance between the amount of energy in the L and R track as you roll the Pan control either direction.

That way, if you have a stereo piano track, for example, that has the typical two mic configuration, one over the midlength of the bass strings course and one over the midpoint of the treble hammers, panning the thing hard left or hard right does not result in only hearing half a piano. EE Panning attempts to preserve the original balanced sound as best as it can, regardless of pan position.

You are thus freed to move that stereo piano track to left or right of the center in the soundstage and still have a stereo piano in the mix.
