Abstract
A dynamic range control unit (210) configured to apply dynamic range control, referred to as DRC, to an audio signal (211). The DRC unit (210) is configured to downsample a subband signal (212) derived from the audio signal (211), to provide a downsampled subband signal (321), to determine a DRC gain (329) based on the downsampled subband signal (321), and to apply the DRC gain (329) to the subband signal (212), to provide a compressed subband signal (213) of a compressed audio signal (214).
