Abstract
Embodiments relate to b-chain processing for a spatially enhanced audio signal. A system includes a b-chain processor. The b-chain processor determines asymmetries between the left speaker and the right speaker in frequency response, time alignment, and signal level for a listening position; and generates a left output channel for the left speaker and a right output channel for the right speaker by: applying an N-band equalization to the spatially enhanced signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the frequency response; applying a delay to the spatially enhanced signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the time alignment; and applying a gain to the spatially enhanced signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the signal level.

A system for enhancing an input audio signal for a left speaker and a right speaker, comprising:
- a processing circuitry configured to:
- determine asymmetries between the left speaker and the right speaker in frequency response, time alignment, and signal level for a listening position;
- and
- generate a left output channel for the left speaker and a right output channel for the right speaker by at least one of:
- applying an N-band equalization to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the frequency response;
- applying a delay to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the time alignment;
- or
- applying a gain to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the signal level.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, configure the at least one processor to:
- determine asymmetries between a left speaker and a right speaker in frequency response, time alignment, and signal level for a listening position;
- and
- generate a left output channel for the left speaker and a right output channel for the right speaker by at least one of:
- applying an N-band equalization to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the frequency response;
- applying a delay to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the time alignment;
- or
- applying a gain to the input audio signal to adjust for the asymmetry in the signal level.
