Audio apparatus and method of operation therefor

An audio apparatus comprising:

• a receiver circuit,
• wherein the receiver circuit is arranged to receive an audio data for an audio scene,
• wherein the audio data comprises a first audio component,
• wherein the first audio component represents a real-world audio source in an audio environment of a user;
• a determinator circuit,
• wherein the determinator circuit is arranged to determine a first property of a real-world audio component,
• wherein the real-world audio component reaches the user from the real-world audio source;
• a target processor circuit,
• wherein the target processor circuit determines a target property for a combined audio component,
• wherein the combined audio component is received by the user in response to the audio data,
• wherein the combined audio component is a combination of the real-world audio component received by the user and rendered audio of the first audio component;
• an adjuster circuit,
• wherein the adjuster circuit determines a render property for the first audio component by modifying a property of the first audio component from a value,
• wherein the value is indicated by the audio data,
• wherein the render property of the first audio component is determined in response to the target property and the first property;
• and
• a renderer circuit, wherein the renderer circuit is arranged to render the first audio component in response to the render property.
