  • Patent number: 8054980
    Abstract: An audio processor, apparatus, and method use physical speakers to emulate one or more additional speakers. The physical speakers produce sounds that, from a listener's perspective, appear to come from at least one direction where a physical speaker is not present. Any number of additional speakers can be virtualized, such as three or five speakers that allow two speakers to emulate a 5.1 audio system.
