Patent attributes
An apparatus includes a receiver and an up-mixer. The receiver is configured to receive a bitstream that includes an encoded mid signal and encoded stereo parameter information. The encoded stereo parameter information represents a first value of a stereo parameter and a second value of the stereo parameter. The first value is associated with a first frequency range. The second value is associated with a second frequency range that is distinct from the first frequency range. The up-mixer is configured to perform an up-mix operation on a frequency-domain decoded mid signal generated from the encoded mid signal. A particular value based on the first value and the second value is applied to the frequency-domain decoded mid signal during the up-mix operation.
