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 22):
Apparatus of  claim 1 ,\n wherein the spectral-time converter is configured to apply an analysis window, wherein the spectral-time converter is configured to apply a synthesis window, wherein the length in time of the analysis window is equal or an integer multiple or integer fraction of the length in time of the synthesis window, or wherein the analysis window and the synthesis window each comprises a zero padding portion at an initial portion or an end portion thereof, or wherein the analysis window and the synthesis window are so that the window size, an overlap region size and a zero padding size each comprise an integer number of samples for at least two sampling rates of the group of sampling rates comprising 12.8 kHz, 16 kHz, 26.6 kHz, 32 kHz, 48 kHz, or wherein a maximum radix of a digital Fourier transform in a split radix implementation is lower than or equal to  7 , or wherein a time resolution is fixed to a value lower than or equal to a frame rate of the core encoder.
