Claim 0:
1. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including computer program code,
the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
receive information on a position of at least one user with respect to a spatial audio field provided by an audio source device;
determine an audio volume level at the position of the at least one user;
receive information relating to background noise generated by the audio source device when providing the spatial audio field;
determine, based on the audio volume level at the position of the at least one user and the information relating to the background noise, control information for controlling the audio source device; and
control the audio source device based on the control information when providing the spatial audio field, wherein the apparatus is caused to control the audio source device by rotating the spatial audio field and maintaining rotation of the spatial audio field such that a direction of the spatial audio field with a largest amount of energy corresponds with a direction of the audio source device until a determination that the background noise satisfies a threshold value.
