ADAPTIVE SOUND SCENE ROTATION

The disclosure provides an approach for adaptive sound scene rotation. A method of adaptively rendering audio is provided. The method includes obtaining an audio signal. The audio signal is associated with one or more audio channels and each audio channel is associated with a position of an audio source with respect to a reference point within a local reproduction system. The method includes determining a rotation of a user with respect to a reference orientation about the reference position within the local reproduction system and determining a system rotation based on the rotation of the user. The method includes rendering the audio signal to one or more loudspeakers of a plurality of loudspeakers within the local reproduction system, based on the system rotation, a number of the plurality of loudspeakers, and the plurality of positions of the plurality of loudspeakers, to compensate for the rotation of the user.
