Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing an audio signal, and more particularly, to a method and an apparatus for processing an audio signal, which synthesize an object signal and a channel signal and effectively perform binaural rendering of the synthesized signal.To this end, provided are a method for processing an audio signal, which includes: receiving an input audio signal including a multi-channel signal; receiving truncated subband filter coefficients for filtering the input audio signal, the truncated subband filter coefficients being at least some of subband filter coefficients obtained from binaural room impulse response (BRIR) filter coefficients for binaural filtering of the input audio signal and the length of the truncated subband filter coefficients being determined based on filter order information obtained by at least partially using reverberation time information extracted from the corresponding subband filter coefficients; obtaining vector information indicating the BRIR filter coefficients corresponding to each channel of the input audio signal; and filtering each subband signal of the multi-channel signal by using the truncated …
