Method and an apparatus for processing a signal

Abstract

A method of processing a signal is disclosed, which includes receiving a downmix signal, object information and rendering information; and generating downmix processing information using the object information and the rendering information, the object information including modified object level information, wherein the modified object level information is determined using a level of a modified object generated by applying a downmix gain to an object. Accordingly, in an apparatus for processing a signal and method thereof according to the present invention, the signal is decoded using object information including modified object level information. Therefore, since a downmix gain is not transmitted, the present invention is able to reduce a used bit for object information and decode a signal using less information.
