Performance evaluation of multichannel audio compression

In recent years, multichannel audio systems are widely used in modern sound devices as it can provide more realistic and engaging experience to the listener. This paper focuses on the performance evaluation of three lossy, i.e. AAC, Ogg Vorbis, and Opus, and three lossless compression, i.e. FLAC, Tr...
