Abstract

An apparatus for spatial audio reproduction including circuitry configured to: obtain at least one focus parameter configured to define a focus shape; process a spatial audio signal that represents an audio scene to generate a processed spatial audio signal that represents a modified audio scene, so as to control relative emphasis in, at least in part, a portion of the spatial audio signal in the focus shape relative to at least in part other portions of the spatial audio signals outside the focus shape; and output the processed spatial audio signal, wherein the modified audio scene enables the relative emphasis in, at least in part, the portion of the spatial audio signal in the focus shape relative to at least in part other portions of the spatial audio signals outside the focus shape.
