Abstract

An audio system provides for soundstage-conserving channel summation. The system includes circuitry that generates a first rotated component and a second rotated component by rotating a pair of audio signal components. The circuitry generates left quadrature components that are out of phase with each other using the first rotated component and generates right quadrature components that are out of phase with each other using the second rotated component. The circuitry generates orthogonal correlation transform (OCT) components based on the left and right quadrature components. Each OCT component including a weighted combination of a left quadrature component and a right quadrature component. The circuitry generates a mono output channel using one or more of the OCT components.
