System and method of determining auditory context information

A device comprising:

• a first processor configured to:
• process, while a second processor, in the device, is in an idle mode, a captured audio input signal, based on the characteristics of an audio input signal, to determine auditory context information is a keyword within the captured audio input signal;
• the second processor configured to:
• transition from the idle mode to an active audio logging mode in response to the keyword detected, by the first processor;
• determine additional auditory contextual information in the captured audio signal after the keyword is detected;
• determine an audio quality enhancement level to be applied to the captured audio input signal based on determined additional auditory context information after the keyword is detected;
• dynamically adjust the audio quality enhancement level in accordance to the determined additional auditory context information;
• and
• perform audio quality enhancement on the captured audio input signal is based on the dynamically adjusted audio quality enhancement level.
