Systems and methods for automatically generating spatial audio tracks for sound sources in a scene or segment of a media asset based on their surrounding physical, acoustic, and environmental conditions, are described. The methods perform video, audio, closed caption, and other contextual analysis to identify sound sources present in a selected scene of a pre-existing media asset. The identified sound sources are scored based on a plurality of factors, including their prominence and contextual relevance to the scene. Surroundings, such as structures (e.g., furniture and occlusions), ambient sounds, and sounds produced by other sound sources, are analyzed to determine their effect on the sound source. Spatial metadata is generated based on this analysis and surrounding context and is used to generate separate individual spatial audio tracks for each sound source that exceeds a relevance threshold.
