Abstract

A method, a computer readable storage medium, and an apparatus for determining a target sound scene at a target position from two or more source sound scenes. A positioning unit positions spatial domain representations of the two or more source sound scenes in a virtual scene. These representations are represented by virtual loudspeaker positions. A projecting unit then obtains projected virtual loudspeaker positions of a spatial domain representation of the target sound scene by projecting the virtual loudspeaker positions of the two or more source sound scenes on a circle or a sphere around the target position.
