Abstract
An apparatus including circuitry configured to: receive a spatial audio signal, the spatial audio signal including at least one audio signal and spatial metadata associated with the at least one audio signal; obtain a room effect control indication; and determine, based on the room effect control indication, whether a room effect is to be applied to the at least one audio signal, wherein the circuitry is configured, when the room effect is to be applied to the spatial audio signal, to: generate a first part binaural audio signal based on the at least one audio signal and spatial metadata; generate a second part binaural audio signal based on the at least one audio signal, at least the second part binaural audio signal is generated with at least in part the room effect so as to have a different response than a response of the first part binaural audio signal; and combine the first part binaural audio signal and the second part binaural audio signal to generate a combined binaural audio signal.
