    Abstract: A method comprising: causing rendering of a first sound scene comprising multiple first sound objects; in response to direct or indirect user specification of a change in sound scene from the first sound scene to a mixed sound scene based in part on the first sound scene and in part on a second sound scene, causing selection of one or more second sound objects of the second sound scene comprising multiple second sound objects; causing selection of one or more first sound objects in the first sound scene; and causing rendering of a mixed sound scene by rendering the first sound scene while de-emphasising the selected one or more first sound objects and emphasising the selected one or more second sound objects.

    Abstract: Apparatus is configured to associate each of one or more spatially-distributed audio sources in a virtual space, each audio source providing one or more audio signals representing audio for playback through a user device, with a respective fade-in profile which defines how audio volume for the audio source is gradually increased from a minimum level to a target volume level as a function of time. It is configured also to identify, based on user position, a current field-of-view within a virtual space and, in response to detecting that one or more new audio sources have a predetermined relationship with respect to the current field-of-view, fading-in the audio from the or each new audio source according to the fade-in profile for the respective audio source so as to increase their volume gradually towards the target volume level defined by the fade-in profile.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, computer programs and methods are provided. A first method includes responding to user input, at a wearable user input device, by causing transmission of a radio frequency signal includes a request from a pedestrian wearer of the wearable user input device. The request may be a request to cross a road. A second method includes responding to the user input, provided by the pedestrian wearer of the wearable user input device, by causing motion of a vehicle to change. The motion of the vehicle may be changed in order to enable the pedestrian to cross the road.
