摘要

An audio decoder for providing at least four bandwidth-extended channel signals on the basis of an encoded representation is configured to provide a first downmix signal and a second downmix signal on the basis of a jointly encoded representation of the first downmix signal and the second downmix signal using a multi-channel decoding. The audio decoder is configured to provide at least a first audio channel signal and a second audio channel signal on the basis of the first downmix signal using a multi-channel decoding. The audio decoder is configured to provide at least a third audio channel signal and a fourth audio channel signal on the basis of the second downmix signal using a multi-channel decoding. The audio decoder is configured to perform a multi-channel bandwidth extension on the basis of the first audio channel signal and the third audio channel signal, to obtain a first bandwidth-extended channel signal and a third bandwidth-extended channel signal. The audio decoder is configured to perform a multi-channel bandwidth extension on the basis of the second audio channel signal and the fourth audio channel signal, to obtain a second bandwidth extended channel signal and a fourth bandwidth extended channel signal. An audio encoder uses a related concept.
