Abstract
An apparatus for reproducing a spatially extended sound source having a defined position or orientation and geometry in a space has an interface for receiving a listener position. The apparatus having a projector for calculating a projection of a two- or three-dimensional hull associated with the sound source onto a projection plane using the listener position, information on the geometry of the sound source, and on the position of the sound source; a sound position calculator for calculating positions of at least two sound sources for the spatially extended sound source using the projection plane; and a renderer for rendering the at least two sound sources at the positions to obtain a reproduction of the sound source having two or more output signals, configured to use different sound signals for the different positions.
