Sphero Symphony is the name (not even a trademark) given by SNK to the use of stereo in some early NeoGeo games.
As it can be seen in the Art of Fighting's source code file sys/SOUND.SRC, the process simply pans sound effects left, center, or right, depending on the sprites positions on the screen. Since the NeoGeo only has 1-bit panning, there are only 3 different zones with overall constant power:
- Left, full volume
- Left + right, half volume
- Right, full volume
Panning is set by the game engine through special commands sent to the sound driver.
Nothing more than that.
