Audio Rendering Optimization Based on Loudspeaker Layout

A system comprising one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing instructions;

• and one or more processors coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media and operable to execute the instructions to:
• access input audio for playback on a set of loudspeakers having a particular layout in a listening space;
• determine, based on the particular layout of the set of loudspeakers in the listening space, whether the particular layout comprises a custom layout that differs from a default layout associated with a default renderer for generating output audio for playback on the set of loudspeakers;
• in response to a determination that the particular layout comprises a custom layout, then select, based on the particular layout of the set of loudspeakers, a modified renderer for generating output audio for playback on the set of loudspeakers;
• and
• render the input audio using the selected modified renderer to generate the output audio for playback on the set of loudspeakers.
