Abstract: Provided are an encoding method of a multichannel signal, an encoding apparatus to perform the encoding method, a multichannel signal processing method, and a decoding apparatus to perform the decoding method. The decoding method may include identifying an N/2-channel downmix signal derived from an N-channel input signal; and generating an N-channel output signal from the identified N/2-channel downmix signal using a plurality of one-to-two (OTT) boxes. If a low frequency effect (LFE) channel is absent in the output signal, the number of OTT boxes may be equal to N/2 where N/2 denotes the number of channels of the downmix signal.
