Abstract

A specification of sound producing elements within a graphical scene is provided as input to an artificial intelligence (AI) model. The specification of the sound producing elements includes a description of each sound producing element and a position of each sound producing element within a three-dimensional (3D) space relative to a virtual ambisonic microphone location within the graphical scene. A library of sound effects is also provided as input to the AI model. The AI model is executed to automatically generate an ambisonic soundfield for the specification of sound producing elements within the graphical scene from the library of sound effects. The automatically generated ambisonic soundfield is conveyed to a client computing system for post-processing by a sound designer.
