EQUIPMENT AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING ENCODED AUDIO SCENES USING PARAMETRIC CONVERSION

Abstract

The invention refers to a device and method for processing encoded audio scenes using parameter transformation. The encoded audio scene processing device (130) represents the sound field related to the virtual listener's position, the encoded audio scene includes information about the transmission signal (122) and a first set of parameters (112) related to the virtual listener's position including a parameter converter (110) to convert the first set of parameters (112) into a second set of parameters (114) related to the channel representation including two or more channels to reproduce at predetermined spatial positions for two or more channels, and an output interface (120) to generate the processed audio scene (124) using the second set of parameters and information about the transmission signal (122),
