Abstract
An audio signal processing apparatus includes a receiver which receives an audio signal including audio data for at least a first audio object associated with a three dimensional image. The audio signal also includes depth position data indicative of a target depth position for the first audio object. A determiner determines a visual rendering depth range for a target three dimensional display for presenting the three dimensional image, and a mapper for mapping the target depth position to a rendering depth position for the audio object where the mapping is dependent on the visual rendering depth range. The visual rendering depth range may specifically be a depth range in which the three dimensional display can accurately render objects, and the mapper may amend the positions of audio object sound sources such that these match the depth positions of corresponding visual objects presented by the three dimensional display.
