Abstract:
An apparatus for encoding a multi-channel signal including at least two channels includes a time-spectral converter for converting sequences of blocks of sampling values of the at least two channels into a frequency domain representation having sequences of blocks of spectral values for the at least two channels; a multi-channel processor for applying a joint multi-channel processing to the sequences of blocks of spectral values to obtain at least one result sequence of blocks of spectral values including information related to the at least two channels; a spectral-time converter for converting the result sequence of blocks of spectral values into a time domain representation including an output sequence of blocks of sampling values; and a core encoder for encoding the output sequence of blocks of sampling values to obtain an encoded multi-channel signal.

Claim (Index 36):
Apparatus of  claim 25 ,\n wherein the core decoder is configured to generate a further core decoded signal comprising a further sampling rate being different from the input sampling rate, wherein the time-spectral converter is configured to convert the further core decoded signal into a frequency domain representation comprising a further sequence of blocks of values for the further core decoded signal, wherein a block of sampling values of the further core decoded signal comprises spectral values up to a further maximum input frequency being different from the maximum input frequency and related to the further sampling rate, wherein the spectral domain resampler is configured to resample the further sequence of blocks for the further core decoded signal in the frequency domain to acquire a further resampled sequence of blocks of spectral values, wherein a block of spectral values of the further resampled sequence comprises spectral values up to the maximum output frequency being different from the further maximum input frequency; and a combiner for combining the resampled sequence and the further resampled sequence to acquire the sequence to be processed by the multi-channel processor.
