; Third in the Stereo Butterfly series
; like a butterfly's wings 
; opening or closing from one position to another
; 1.0 is wings wide open (full stereo)
; 0.0 is wings closed (audio sounds mono)
; -1.0 butterfly has totally flipped, wings wide open
; (left channel is fully flipped with right and vice versa)   
; and the ramp changes the stereo width
; over duration of the selection
; for instance, 0 to +1 means 
; going from sounding mono to full stereo

; make sure spread 1 & 2 are both between -1 and 1
(setf spread1 (min (max spread1 -1) 1))
(setf spread2 (min (max spread2 -1) 1))
