Abstract
Spatializing audio can include determining a draw-away curve of an audio signal and modifying the draw-away curve based on a strength of the audio signal. The strength can be determined prior to spatializing the audio signal. The audio signal can be attenuated or modified based on the modified draw-away curve. The attenuated or modified audio signal can be spatialized. Other aspects are described and claimed.
