Abstract
An apparatus including circuitry configured to: obtain two or more audio signals, wherein each audio signal is associated with a microphone array; obtain at least one value associated with an inter-channel difference based on the two or more audio signals; obtain at least one parameter value associated with the two or more audio signals; obtain at least one value associated with an inter-aural difference based at least on the at least one parameter value; generate at least two output audio signals by controlling inter-aural level differences of the generated at least two output audio signals based on the at least one value associated with the inter-channel difference and the at least one value associated with the inter-aural difference, such that sounds nearer to the microphone array are reproduced with a higher inter-aural difference at the at least two output audio signals.
