We present a single-stage casual waveform-to-waveform multichannel model that can separate moving sound sources based on their broad spatial locations in a dynamic acoustic scene. We divide the scene into two spatial regions containing, respectively, the target and the interfering sound sources. The model is trained end-to-end and performs spatial processing implicitly, without any components based on traditional processing or use of hand-crafted spatial features. We evaluate the proposed model on a real-world dataset and show that the model matches the performance of an oracle beamformer followed by a state-of-the-art single-channel enhancement network.
