Spatial audio signal processing

An apparatus for spatial audio signal processing, the apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory memory and computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
• receive captured audio content, wherein the captured audio content is captured within a capture environment with defined geometry, wherein the captured audio content comprises at least audio associated with a first audio source;
• determine a first audio direction and distance, associated with the first audio source of the captured audio content, relative to the defined geometry of the capture environment;
• determine a listening space area geometry;
• map the first audio direction and distance to a distance and a direction relative to the listening space area geometry, wherein at least one of the distance and/or direction relative to the determined listening space geometry is different than the first distance and/or the first direction associated with the first audio source;
• and
• synthesize a volumetric audio based on at least the mapped audio direction and distance to generate an audio content experience within the listening space area geometry.
