    Abstract: Disclosed is a method comprising: rendering a call, for a user, wherein the call comprises a first sector and a second sector, wherein the first sector comprises a first participant in the call and at least one spatial audio source associated with the first participant, and the second sector comprises a second participant and at least one spatial audio source associated with the second participant, detecting an activity of the user, and as a response to the activity of the user, providing an audible change in the rendering of the call by modifying at least one of the first and the second sector.

    Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program is described comprising: providing a stereo or spatial audio signal produced using individual signals from respective microphones of a user device, the stereo or spatial audio signal representing an audio scene; detecting unwanted noise in at least one of the individual signals; responsive to detecting the unwanted noise, modifying the stereo or spatial audio signal based on a determined level of spatial interest in the audio scene meeting a predetermined condition; and providing the modified audio signal for output via one or more speakers.

    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program are provided for assessing a continuity of audio service by comparing a previous audio service with a first spatial audio service that uses user head-tracking and a second audio service to identify which of the first or second spatial audio service provides a continuity of audio service with respect to the previous audio service. If the first or second spatial audio service is assessed to provide continuity of audio service, the respective spatial audio service is selectively enabled. The first spatial audio service controls or sets at least one directional property of at least one sound source and the first spatial audio service is assessed to provide continuity of audio service if it can use head-tracking to control or set the at least one directional property of at least one sound source.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprising means configured to:



    determine if there is a touch at a tactile audio display comprising actuators configured to produce tactile feedback via touch at the tactile audio display in dependence on an input tactile feedback signal and to produce an acoustic audio signal from the tactile audio display in dependence on an input audio signal; and
    if there is a determined touch, perform a first differential signal processing on the input tactile feedback signal and the input audio signal, before provision to the actuators of the tactile audio display, to cause a relative attenuation between a lower frequency range and a higher frequency range for the input audio signal compared to the tactile feedback signal.
