Abstract

Systems and methods for preserving headphone rendering mode (HRM) in object clustering are described. In an embodiment, an object-based audio data processing system includes a processor configured to receive a plurality of audio objects, wherein an audio object of the plurality of audio objects is associated with respective object metadata that indicates respective spatial position information and an HRM; determine a plurality of cluster positions by applying an extended hybrid distance metric to a spatial coding algorithm to calculate a partial loudness for each of the audio objects; render the audio objects to the cluster positions to form a plurality of clusters by applying the extended hybrid distance metric to the spatial coding algorithm to calculate object-to-cluster gains; and transmit the clusters to a spatial reproduction system.
