Abstract: For generating a low-frequency channel for a low-frequency loudspeaker arranged at a predetermined low-frequency loudspeaker position, a plurality of audio objects are initially provided, each audio object having an object position and an object description associated with it. Hereafter, a calculation of an audio object scaling value is performed for each audio object on the basis of the object description, so that an actual amplitude state at least comes close to a target amplitude state at a reference playback position. Thereafter, each object signal is scaled with an associated audio object scaling value so as to then sum the scaled object signals. From the composite signal obtained there, a low-frequency channel is subsequently derived for the low-frequency loudspeaker, and is provided to the respective low-frequency loudspeaker.
