Zusammenfassung:	There is provided encoding and decoding methods for representing spatial audio that is a combination of directional sound and diffuse sound. An exemplary encoding method includes inter alia creating a single- or multi-channel downmix audio signal by downmixing input audio signals from a plurality of microphones in an audio capture unit capturing the spatial audio; determining first metadata parameters associated with the downmix audio signal, wherein the first metadata parameters are indicative of one or more of: a relative time delay value, a gain value, and a phase value associated with each input audio signal; and combining the created downmix audio signal and the first metadata parameters into a representation of the spatial audio.
