FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: invention is related to coding audio signals with flows of audio data. Invention consists in combination of separate flows of audio data into multi-channel flows of audio data by means of data unit modification in audio data flow, which is divided into data units with audio data of determination unit and data unit, for instance, by supplementing, adding or replacing of their part, so that they include indicator of length, which displays value or length of data, respectively, of audio data of data unit or value or length of data, respectively, of data unit, in order to receive the second flow of audio data with modified data units. Alternatively, flow of audio data with indicators in determination units, which point to audio data of determination unit connected to these units of determination, but distributed among different data units, is transformed into flow of audio data, in which audio data of determination unit are combined into audio data of continuous determination unit. Then audio data of continuous determination unit may be included into self-sufficient element of channel together with their determination unit.
EFFECT: simplification of audio data manipulation in relation to combination of separate flows of audio data into multi-channel flows of audio data or general manipulation of audio data flow.
