Abstract:
A method of encoding channel or object based input audio for playback, the method including the steps of: (a) initially rendering the channel or object based input audio into an initial output presentation; (b) determining an estimate of the dominant audio component from the channel or object based input audio and determining a series of dominant audio component weighting factors for mapping the initial output presentation into the dominant audio component; (c) determining an estimate of the dominant audio component direction or position; and (d) encoding the initial output presentation, the dominant audio component weighting factors, the dominant audio component direction or position as the encoded signal for playback.

Claim (Index 20):
A method as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the secondary representation is obtained from the first representation by matrixing in a transform or filterbank domain and/or the transformation data further comprises additional matrixing coefficients, and step (d) further comprises modifying the first audio presentation in response to the additional matrixing coefficients prior to combining the first audio presentation and the auxiliary audio signal(s).
