An apparatus for providing one or more adjusted parameters for a provision of an upmix signal representation on the basis of a downmix signal representation and an object-related parametric information includes a parameter adjuster. The parameter adjuster is configured to receive one or more input parameters and to provide, on the basis thereof, one or more adjusted parameters. The parameter adjuster is configured to provide the one or more adjusted parameters in dependence on the one or more input parameters and the object-related parametric information, such that a distortion of the upmix signal representation caused by the use of non-optimal parameters is reduced at least for input parameters deviating from optimal parameters by more than a predetermined deviation.
1. An audio signal encoder for providing a downmix signal representation and an object-related parametric information on the basis of a plurality of object signals, the audio encoder comprising:
a downmixer configured to provide one or more downmix signals in dependence on downmix coefficients associated with the object signals, such that the one or more downmix signals comprise a superposition of a plurality of object signals;
a side information provider configured to provide an inter-object-relationship side information describing level differences and correlation characteristics of object signals and an individual-object side information describing one or more individual properties of the individual object signals,
wherein the individual-object side information comprises an object signal tonality information which describes tonalities of the individual object signals.
2. A method for providing a downmix signal representation and an object-related parametric information on the basis of a plurality of object signals, the method comprising:
providing one or more downmix signals in dependence on downmix coefficients associated with the object signals, such that the one or more downmix signals comprise a superposition of a plurality of object signals; and
providing an inter-object-relationship side information describing level differences and correlation characteristics of object signals; and
providing an individual-object side information describing one or more individual properties of the individual object signals,

8. A non-transitory digital storage medium comprising an audio bitstream representing a plurality of object signals in an encoded form, the audio bitstream comprising:
a downmix signal representation representing one or more downmix signals, wherein at least one of the downmix signals comprises a superposition of a plurality of object signals; and
an inter-object-relationship side information describing level differences and correlation characteristics of object signals; and
an individual-object side information describing one or more individual properties of the individual object signals;
wherein the individual-object side information comprises an object signal tonality information which describes tonalities of the individual object signals.
