  • Patent number: 9119002
    Abstract: A method of processing an input audio signal, the method comprising forming a plurality of output audio signals from the input audio signal, wherein each output audio signal is formed by performing respective processing on the input audio signal, wherein for a first output audio signal there is a target audio equalization operation comprising a target filter twice, wherein for the first output audio signal, the respective processing comprises a first audio equalization operation, the first audio equalization operation being the target audio equalization operation modified to compensate for phase shifts that correspond to zeros of the transfer function of the target audio equalization operation, wherein for each output audio signal other than the first output audio signal, the respective processing comprises a compensation filter that compensates for phase shifts that correspond to poles of the transfer function of the target audio equalization operation.
