1. An apparatus for assisting spatial rendering for room acoustics, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
obtain directivity data having an identifier, wherein the directivity data comprises data for at least two separate directions;
obtain at least one room parameter;
determine information associated with the directivity data;
determine gain data based on the determined information;
determine averaged gain data based on the gain data; and
generate a bitstream defining a rendering, the bitstream comprising the averaged gain data and the at least one room parameter such that at least one audio signal associated with the identifier is configured to be rendered based on the at least one room parameter and the determined averaged gain data.
