Abstract
A system and method code an object-based audio signal comprising audio objects in response to audio streams with associated metadata. In the system and method, a metadata processor codes the metadata and generates information about bit-budgets for the coding of the metadata of the audio objects. An encoder codes the audio streams while a bit-budget allocator is responsive to the information about the bit-budgets for the coding of the metadata of the audio objects from the metadata processor to allocate bitrates for the coding of the audio streams by the encoder.
