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 7):
A method of performing panning for an arbitrary loudspeaker setup, comprising:\n determining a placement of one or two virtual loudspeakers within the loudspeaker setup, wherein the loudspeaker setup includes a plurality of real loudspeakers; determining vector base amplitude panning (VBAP) gains, wherein the VBAP gains include gains of the real loudspeakers and the one or two virtual loudspeakers; redistributing gains of the one or two virtual loudspeakers to the real loudspeakers to ensure preservation of total energy; and generating loudspeaker outputs for the real loudspeakers in the loudspeaker setup to be played back, wherein the real loudspeakers have the redistributed gains of the at least one virtual loudspeaker.
