First version was using commandline tools, but updates of the underlying tools broke my script, so I re-did it with pydub, only to find that pydub seems to be doing linear fade when crossfading, resulting in a nasty drop in volume in the middle of the fade.

This is what I use for near constant power panning. Any good?
float t = (float)(GlobalPar.PPanning - 1) / 126.0f;
pangainL = cosf(t * Pi/2);
pangainR = cosf((1.0f - t) * Pi/2);


Where GlobalPar.PPanning is in the range 0 - 127
It actually gives a 3dB hump in the middle.
