Abstract:
An encoder and an encoding method for a multi-channel signal, and a decoder and a decoding method for a multi-channel signal are disclosed. A multi-channel signal may be efficiently processed by consecutive downmixing or upmixing.

Claim (Index 5):
A device of processing a multi-channel signal performed by one or more processor, the device comprising:\n one or more processors are configured to: decode first CPE (Channel Pair Element), and a second bitstream related to second CPE; output cplx_out_dmx_L which is first channel of first CPE after complex prediction stereo coding and cplx_out_dmx_R which is second channel of first CPE after complex prediction stereo coding; output mps_out_L_1 which is first output channel of first MPEG Surround, and mps_out_L_2 which is second output channel of first MPEG surround; output mps_out_R_1 which is first output channel of second MPEG Surround and mps_out_R_2 which is second output channel of second MPEG Surround; output sbr_out_L_1 which is first output channel of first Stereo SBR and sbr_out_R_1 which is second output channel of first Stereo SBR; and output sbr_out_L_2 which is first output channel of second Stereo SBR and sbr_out_R_2 which is second output channel of second Stereo SBR.
