Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018151858A1] A method for processing a multi-channel input audio signal is performed at a computing device. The method includes the following steps: selecting, from the multi-channel input audio signal, a left input channel and a right input channel, wherein the left input channel and the right input channel correspond to a pair of spatially symmetrical signal sources; generating one or more cross-channel features from the left input channel and the right input channel; processing, in accordance with the cross-channel features, the left input channel and the right input channel to generate a left intermediate channel and a right intermediate channel; and combining each of the left intermediate channel and the right intermediate channel with a third input channel of the multi-channel input audio signal to form a two-channel output audio signal.
