Doppler has a function of sound waves being stretched and compressed. You cannot do that with volume and pan.
You can make a tremolo effect with volume automation, sure.

Make your edit points look like this: VVVVVVVVVVV
 
But how do u automate the audio track so it sounds like its ""rotating"" volume its different than tremolo fading up and down

Rotating like a loop so the audio track seems like its doing volume rotations like volume loops not tremolo

how can i do this please?
 
What you gotta do is first go on Harmony Central, give yourself the nickname caption of "The HC Brick Wall", ask some nonsense questions about music theory there and bug the shit out of them for a while, get kicked off of there for a while, come here and ask some irrational questions about something you have already answered yourself, even though it's something you'll never actually DO, call me a few painless and childish names, and get driven off this forum and back to Harmony Central again.

You're halfway there, Brick Wally.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to walters again.
 
Hey walters!

I knew it was you when I saw the word doppler. :)
 
SouthSIDE Glen is this one to hard for u again to answer ?? maybe your not that pro :eek:
 
If you point at the donkey while eating the bannana, your dreams will become dopplerized through time and panning schemed mechanisims ......

Excellent, Brick Wally! You're one step closer to having it done! Keep going. You've made your weak attempt at calling me a name; now all you gotta do is get tired of not getting anywhere here, leave here and go back to Harmony Central. Then you're done!

haha "your not that pro"

It really amazes me that this doesn't get old for those who go on these sites and make up stupid, fake questions just to get people all riled up...
 
You're trying to do a Doppler effect in mono? :confused:

Use volume automation. I'm sure you know what automation is by now, after asking about it 4 million times.

Walters is at it again!

Since you're a pro, I am sure you have some sort of Waves bundle... Some of them come with Doppler. If you have a mono track, you'll need to route it to a Stereo Bus (Group in Cubase speak) and stick Doppler on that.

For emulating "rotation" I wouldn't use an audio track in a DAW. I'd load that sucker in a sampler and setup the following:

1. Setup two LFOs running at the same rate, but 90 degrees apart.

2. Setup the following patch: Sample->2 pole LPF (no resonance)->Amp.

3. Route LFO1 to pitch, LPF cutoff and Amp modulation. You want to modulate all these guys in the same direction... i.e. LFO goes up, so does pitch, filter cutoff and Amp volume, it goes down, they follow along. You probably don't want to have too wild a pitch modulation, probably 1/2 step (100 cents) in each direction max.

4. Route LFO2 to pan.

Play some note and smile.

If you wanna get fancy, and if your sampler will allow you to do so, route your patch to a reverb/delay and have LFO1 modulate dry/wet amount in the OPPOSITE direction from pitch, LPF cutoff and Amp modulation. Basically the signal moves "away" and becomes more verby, comes close, sounds more dry.
 
thanks for the help

What can i use to modulate the pitch?

To modualte the Amp volume is automating the fader?
 
i have a leslie simulation but how do u get the SLOW speed to be very SLOW like in the seconds?? 2 or 4 seconds long??
 
You can get a similar effect by placing your most expensive mic on a long pendulum, and swinging it back-and-forth across the room.
