Anyone know how to achieve making a sound, sound as thow it is coming from the back to the front. Darren styles save me modulate mix has sounds that do this. I originally thought you would make 2 exact sane tracks with same sound, one panned left and the other right and move them to the centre but this doesnt give the effect. So i tried using previous method but also eq different and slight delay between the 2 and also eq rightside different or opposite for each and these didnt give effect either.
Anyone have other suggestions?

I was thinking about maybe automating reverb... might make the sound be less distinct aka "far away" and the clearer it becomes the closer it will feel. Generally I associate panning with side to side and reverb, or in this case extreme reverb as way back to front but I'm sure its something more complicated but that might be a place to start.
Hope this helped a little

I think you might be talking about the "Doppler effect". I've never used Doppler plugin but I hear Waves has a good one: http://www.waves.com/Content.aspx?id=244

I thought that mortis, but didnt answer in case it was the wrong effect...
I've used the doppler effect to make the sound go 'around your head'
i heard it first in: acen - trip to the moon 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfMlQJ5SeFo listen from 2.22 with headphones on ;)
try to picture the effect inside a circle:
basically it's side to side panning while using an automated low pass filter, the low pass automation needs to match the panning exactly each 180 degrees from left to centre & centre to right while the filter goes low to high & high to low, together it makes it sound like the music is circulating around you're head.

Rather than making copies and panning them left and right just stick with the one channel, put some extreme stereo separation effect on it (most DAWs with have something suitable built in) and just automate it from all the way on to all the way off. Of course if the sound is very stereo already you may need to mono it first for this to work.
It could also work with a reverb that is set very wide but I don't think the effect would be as big. Perhaps try combining both automations for a very obvious effect? Maybe even automate volume a bit so it gets loud as it gets more central, I think this will help a lot.

Wouldn't this thin the sound until it reaches center?

Somewhat yes but it would basically achieve what he wants. A sound from a central point would sound wider from a long distance as it would have travelled further to the left and right before it reaches your listening point. This is why narrowing the sounds width and increasing volume will trick your ears into thinking the source is travelling closer to you.

Oh right. Interesting.
