Original Abstract Submitted

an audio apparatus comprises a first receiver () receiving audio data for audio sources of a scene comprising multiple rooms. a determiner () determines a room comprising a listening position and a neighbor room. a second receiver () receives spatial acoustic transmission data describing a number of transmission boundary regions for the listening room having an acoustic transmission level of sound from the neighbor room to the listening room exceeding a threshold. a first reverberator () determines a reverberation audio signal for the neighbor room. a sound source circuit () determines a sound source position in the neighbor room for a transmission boundary region. a renderer () renders an audio signal for the listening position which includes an audio component generated by rendering the second room reverberation audio signal from the sound source position. an improved rendering of multi-room scenes can be achieved.
