Audio Channel Layout

A channel layout defines how many audio channels are used in the output and how the audio is distributed between them.

Nyx Converter currently supports Stereo and Mono.

Stereo

Stereo audio uses two channels:

• Left
• Right

This allows sounds to be positioned between the left and right sides, creating a wider listening experience.

Recommended for:

---

Mono

Mono audio uses a single audio channel.

channelLayout: NyxChannelLayout.mono,

Recommended for:

• Voice recordings
• Phone calls
• Voice messages
• Speech
• Smaller audio files

Notes

• Stereo produces 2 audio channels.
• Mono produces 1 audio channel.
• Channel conversion can reduce the size of an audio stream when converting stereo to mono.
• channelLayout applies to audio streams.
• The actual result also depends on the source media and FFmpeg configuration.
