Abstract
Systems and methods for modifying spatial audio are described. One of the methods includes obtaining a first set of metadata for a first set of audio data and a second set of metadata for a second set of audio data. The first and second sets of metadata and the first and second sets of audio data are associated with a display of a virtual scene. The method further includes encoding the first set of audio data to output a first soundfield and the second set of audio data to output a second soundfield. The method also includes mixing the first and second soundfields to output a mixed soundfield, decoding the mixed soundfield based on at least one of the first set of metadata and the second set of metadata to provide mixed audio data, and outputting the mixed audio data as an audio output.
