Original Abstract Submitted

systems and techniques are provided for performing spatial audio recording. for instance, a process can include detecting an occlusion for at least one audio frame of one or more audio frames associated with a spatial audio recording. during the spatial audio recording, the process can further include selecting, based on detection of the occlusion, at least one of an occluded spatial filter for the one or more audio frames or a non-occluded spatial filter for the one or more audio frames.
