Taking a look at it, that seems to be the one.

Panning is indeed just left and right but you can achieve a sense of Y and Z axis from the following techniques in my experience when combined with automated panning.

EQ or filter to push back or bring the sounds forward in a mix - Higher register is closer to the front of the mix, lower registers are farther back in the mix.

Automating wet and dry parameters of reverb combined with this further gives your sounds a sense of 3d space in a mix.

Using certain delay offsets create a sense of stereo panning, try putting a sound through a bus pan it about 70% to the left, route it through the master and also another bus track, on this second bus pan it 70% right and stick a delay on this track and route this to the master also. Bring the dry right down so only the wet delay signal is coming through, depending on the effect you want to create bring the time right down and increase to achieve desired effect.

This is all just from experience many other people will have different things that they do but try all these out 1 by one or even combine them to get some interesting and fun senses of space.

Hope this is sorta what you are talking about gl

i know in a friend of mine's track it sounds like he uses the same lfo rate on his cutoff (when he's using it) and the pan. It sounds good to me. This sounds like it's sort of what wub was getting at.
