    Abstract: The present disclosure provides computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices for capturing spatial sound for an environment. A computing system captures, using two or more microphones, audio data from an environment around a mobile device. The computing system analyzes the audio data to identify a plurality of sound sources in the environment around the mobile device based on the audio data. The computing system determines, based on characteristics of the audio data and data produced by one or more movement sensors, an estimated location for each respective sound source in the plurality of sound sources. The computing system generates a spatial sound recording of the audio data based, at least in part, on the estimated location of each respective sound source in the plurality of sound sources.
