Ambisonics isn't necessarily overkill, but it only gets you direction, not distance -- it's only a 1-dimensional solution, in the sense that you'd be panning around the outside of a circle but not to locations within that circle. It's not terribly CPU expensive. If you do want distance as well you

Probably the best bet would be to make an abstraction for spatializing an individual partial that has the panner built in at the tail which would throw~ the 4 channels to catch~es elsewhere in the patch. Then it wouldn't take much work at all to swap it out with an ambisonic panner later that took
