An error concealment method for multi-channel digital audio involves receiving an audio signal having audio data forming a first audio channel and a second audio channel included therein, wherein the first and second audio channels are correlated with each other in a manner so that a spatial sensation is typically perceived when listened to by a user. Erroneous first-channel data is detected in the first audio channel, and second-channel data is obtained from the second audio channel. The erroneous first-channel data of the first audio channel is corrected by using the second-channel data. Upon detection of the erroneous first-channel data, a spatially perceivable inter-channel relation between the first and second audio channels is determined, and the determined inter-channel relation is used when correcting the erroneous first-channel data of the first audio channel so as to preserve the spatial sensation perceived by the user. |
