Abstract
An audio renderer comprises a receiver () receiving input data comprising early part data indicative of an early part of a head related binaural transfer function; reverberation data indicative of a reverberation part of the transfer function; and a synchronization indication indicative of a time offset between the early part and the reverberation part. An early part circuit () generates an audio component by applying a binaural processing to an audio signal where the processing depends on the early part data. A reverberator () generates a second audio component by applying a reverberation processing to the audio signal where the reverberation processing depends on the reverberation data. A combiner () generates a signal of a binaural stereo signal by combining the two audio components. The relative timing of the audio components is adjusted based on the synchronization indication by a synchronizer () which specifically may be a delay.
