Abstract
In the context of current developments towards an exchange format for spatial audio, it is important to consider the interactions and tensions between spatial composition techniques and spatial audio technologies. This paper gives an overview of common compositional techniques and audio technologies used for spatial compositions, and discusses various forms of hybrid uses of audio technologies. A spatial composition created using certain audio technologies may lose integrity when transferred to another audio technology, when the compositional intent is not taken into account. Tools that are flexible with regard to the spatial audio reproduction technology applied are useful for the comparison of various spatialisation methods during the compositional process, but are also essential to enable a hybrid use of technologies within one composition.
