Abstract
Methods, systems, and storage media for generating spatial audio are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive audio data from a plurality of sources; for each source of the plurality of sources, calculate a pitch similarity for the audio data; for each source of the plurality of sources, calculate an interaural level difference based at least in part on an attenuation level and/or a dynamic range of interaural time differences of the audio data; for each source of the plurality of sources, determine background audio from the audio data; for each source of the plurality of sources, attenuate the background audio of the audio data; generate spatial audio based at least in part on the audio data and the background audio; and cause output of the audio data and the background audio through an audio source.
