Full Description
The present document specifies a coded representation (a bitstream) of audio information, and specifies the decoding process. The coded representation specified herein is suitable for use in digital audio transmission and storage applications.
Building on the technology specified in [1], the present document specifies additional functionality that may be used for immersive, personalized, or other advanced playback experiences. Additional representations can be included, targeting individual listener groups or applications (providing the possibility of different audio experience settings in addition to those specified in [1]).
The present document does not specify an object audio renderer, which would be needed to decode object based audio to a channel based representation. Specification of such a renderer, and its use with the technology specified in the present document, is expected to be referenced or documented in an upcoming revision of, or supplement to, the present document.
