Abstract:
Placement of one or two placed virtual loudspeakers within a loudspeaker setup that includes a real loudspeakers is determined and vector base amplitude panning (VBAP) gains including the gains of the real loudspeakers and placed one or two virtual loudspeakers are also then determined. Gains of one or two placed virtual loudspeakers are redistributed to the real loudspeakers to ensure preservation of total energy. Real loudspeakers in the loudspeaker setup have redistributed gains of one or two placed virtual loudspeakers. Loudspeaker outputs are generated and transmitted to the real loudspeakers to be played back. When received audio content is ambisonics content, a predetermined grid is generated and HOA content is projected to the grid. Other aspects are also described.

Claim (Index 12):
The method of  claim 12 , wherein\n when the loudspeaker setup is a 2-channel setup, locations of the two placed virtual loudspeakers are based on a center of a line formed by locations of two real loudspeakers included in the loudspeaker setup and a listening position, when the loudspeaker setup is a 2-dimensional (2D) setup including more than two real loudspeakers, the locations of the two placed virtual loudspeakers are based on a centroid of a polygon formed by locations of real loudspeakers and the listening position, and/or when the loudspeaker setup is a 3-dimensional (3D) setup, the location of the one placed virtual loudspeaker is based on a center of gravity of a polyhedron formed by the positions of the real loudspeakers.
