Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for encoding a spatial audio representation representing an audio scene to obtain an encoded audio signal includes: a transport representation generator for generating a transport representation from the spatial audio representation, and for generating transport metadata related to the generation of the transport representation or indicating one or more directional properties of the transport representation; and an output interface for generating the encoded audio signal, the encoded audio signal including information on the transport representation, and information on the transport metadata.
