ADAPTIVE AUDIO CONSTRUCTION

摘要

Described herein is a method for creating an object-based audio signal from an audio input, the audio input including one or more audio channels that are recorded to collectively define an audio scene. The one or more audio channels are captured from a respective one or more spatially separated microphones disposed in a stable spatial configuration. The method includes the steps of: a) receiving the audio input; b) performing spatial analysis on the one or more audio channels to identify one or more audio objects within the audio scene; c) determining contextual information relating to the one or more audio objects; d) defining respective audio streams including audio data relating to at least one of the identified one or more audio objects; and e) outputting an object-based audio signal including the audio streams and the contextual information.
