Abstract
An apparatus (300) comprises—one or more inputs (IN1, IN2) to receive two or more different audio signals (S1, S2),—an input (IN—VDI1) to receive a direction signal (SVDI1) and—a signal processing unit (100) arranged to generate a processed audio signal (SAUDIOI) from said two or more different audio signals (S1, S2), said processed audio signal (SAUDIO1) comprising an enhanced audio signal (SENC1) corresponding to a sound (SND2) originating from a location (x2y2) indicated by said direction signal (SVDI1).

24. An apparatus comprising:
-
one or more inputs to receive two or more different audio signals, an input to receive a direction signal, and a signal processing unit, comprising an encoder, arranged to generate a processed audio signal from said two or more different audio signals, said processed audio signal comprising an enhanced audio signal corresponding to a sound originating from a location indicated by said direction signal, said signal processing unit being further arranged to provide one or more spatial audio parameters for controlling audio source locations in subsequent decoding of said processed audio signal, and wherein the encoder comprises a parameter modifying unit arranged to adjust the values of said spatial parameters based on said direction signal. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
