Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and device for processing a first and a second audio signal representing an input binaural audio signal acquired by a binaural recording device. The present invention further relates to a method for rendering a binaural audio signal on a speaker system. The method for processing a binaural signal comprising extracting audio information from the first audio signal, computing a band gain for reducing noise in the first audio signal and applying the band gains to respective frequency bands of the first audio signal in accordance with a dynamic scaling factor, to provide a first output audio signal. Wherein the dynamic scaling factor has a value between zero and one and is selected so as to reduce quality degradation for the first audio signal.
