    Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program for controlling audio output is disclosed. The apparatus may comprise means for receiving data from one or more sensors representing one or more motion characteristics of a user and determining, based on the received data, one or more time instances associated with a sound event. The apparatus may also comprise means for controlling an active hear-through system of a wearable audio output device so as to temporarily modify, at a time of the one or more time instances, sound received by one or more input transducers associated with the active hear-through system that are output to an output transducer associated with the active hear-through system.
