Method and an apparatus for processing an audio signal
An apparatus for processing an audio signal and method thereof are disclosed. The preset invention includes receiving a downmix signal including at least one object, object information based on attribute of the object, preset information to render the downmix signal and preset attribute information indicating attribute of the preset information; rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information to all data regions of the downmix signal, if the preset information is included in an extension region of a configuration information region based on the preset attribute information; and rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information to one corresponding data region of the downmix signal, if the preset information is included in an extension region of a data region based on the preset attribute information. Accordingly, it is able to efficiently reconstruct an audio signal by individually selecting to apply the preset information by a data region unit or selecting to apply the same preset information to all data regions of a downmix signal according to a characteristic of a sound source.
1. A method of processing an audio signal, comprising:
receiving a downmix signal including at least one object, object information based on an attribute of the object, preset information to render the downmix signal, and preset attribute information indicating an attribute of the preset information, wherein the attribute of the preset information indicates whether the preset information is dynamic or static and wherein the dynamic indicates that the preset information is present in an extension region of a data region and the static indicates that the preset information is present in an extension region of a configuration information region;
rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information in the extension region of the configuration information region to a data region of the downmix signal to which the preset information in the extension region of the configuration information region is applied based on the preset attribute information; and
rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information in the extension region of the data region to one corresponding data region of the downmix signal based on the preset attribute information.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating downmix processing information to control panning or gain of the downmix signal and multi-channel information to upmix the downmix signal by using the object information and the preset information; and
modifying the downmix signal by using the downmix processing information.
3. An apparatus of processing an audio signal, comprising:
a signal receiving unit receiving a downmix signal including at least one object and object information based on an attribute of the object;
a preset attribute information receiving unit receiving a preset attribute information indicating an attribute of preset information to render the downmix signal, wherein the attribute of the preset information indicates whether the preset information is dynamic or static and wherein the dynamic indicates that the preset information is present in an extension region of a data region and the static indicates that the preset information is present in an extension region of a configuration information region; and
a rendering unit rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information in the extension region of the configuration information region to a data region to which the preset information in the extension region of the configuration information region is applied, and rendering the downmix signal by applying the preset information in the extension region of the data region to one corresponding data region of the downmix signal based on the preset attribute information.
4. The apparatus of claim 3 , further comprising:
an information processing unit configured to generate downmix processing information to control panning or gain of the downmix signal and multi-channel information to upmix the downmix signal by using the objection information and the preset information; and
a downmix signal processing unit configured to modify the downmix signal by using the downmix processing information.
