Abstract
A method for providing an interface to a processing engine that utilizes intelligent audio mixing techniques may include receiving a request to change a perceptual location of an audio source within an audio mixture from a current perceptual location relative to a listener to a new perceptual location relative to the listener. The audio mixture may include at least two audio sources. The method may also include generating one or more control signals that are configured to cause the processing engine to change the perceptual location of the audio source from the current perceptual location to the new perceptual location via separate foreground processing and background processing. The method may also include providing the one or more control signals to the processing engine.
