Abstract
In accordance with a method for providing a distinct perceptual location for an audio source within an audio mixture, a foreground signal may be processed to provide a foreground perceptual angle for the foreground signal. The foreground signal may also be processed to provide a desired attenuation level for the foreground signal. A background signal may be processed to provide a background perceptual angle for the background signal. The background signal may also be processed to provide a desired attenuation level for the background signal. The foreground signal and the background signal may be combined into an output audio source.
