DOWNMIXER AND METHOD FOR DOWNMIXING AT LEAST TWO CHANNELS AND MULTICHANNEL ENCODER AND MULTICHANNEL DECODER

摘要

A downmixer for downmixing at least two channels of a multichannel signal having the two or more channels includes: a processor for calculating a partial downmix signal from the at least two channels; a complementary signal calculator for calculating a complementary signal from the multichannel signal, the complementary signal being different from the partial downmix signal; and an adder for adding the partial downmix signal and the complementary signal to obtain a downmix signal of the multichannel signal.
