ABSTRACT:
In a method of encoding input signals (CH1to CH3; 400to450) in a multi-channel encoder (5; 15) to generate corresponding output data having down-mix output signals (610, 620) together with complementary parametric data (600), the method includes a first step of down-mixing input signals (CH1to CH3; 400to450) to generate the corresponding down-mix output signals (610, 620), and a second step of processing the input signals (CH1to CH3; 400to450) during down-mixing to generate the parametric data (600) complementary to the down-mix output signals (610, 620). Processing of the input signals (CH1to CH3; 400to450) involves including information in the down-mix signals (610, 620) which is useable during subsequent decoding of the down-mix output signals (610, 620) and the parametric data (600) to determine at least some parameter data and thereby enabling representations of the input signals (CH1to CH3; 400to450) to be subsequently regenerated.
