Abstract
A method on a mobile device for processing an audio input is described. A trigger for the audio input is received. At least one parameter is determined for an audio processor based on at least one input characteristic for the audio input. The audio input is routed to the audio processor with the at least one parameter.
Claims20
A method in a mobile device for processing an audio input, the method comprising:
- receiving a trigger for the audio input;
- determining at least one parameter for an audio processor based on at least one input characteristic for the audio input;
- routing the audio input to the audio processor with the at least one parameter.
A method in a mobile device for processing an audio input, the method comprising:
- receiving a trigger for the audio input;
- selecting a microphone from a set of microphones based on the trigger, wherein the set of microphones comprises a local microphone of the mobile device and a remote microphone;
- determining at least one parameter for an audio processor based on the selected microphone;
- receiving the audio input from the selected microphone;
- providing the audio input to the audio processor with the at least one parameter.
The method of claim 13 wherein determining the at least one parameter comprises selecting a sampling rate associated with the Bluetooth-enabled microphone if the blue-tooth enabled microphone is selected.
A mobile device for processing an audio input, the mobile device comprising:
- a non-transitory memory;
- a processor configured to retrieve instructions from the memory;
- a local microphone;
- a wireless transceiver;
- and
- an audio processor;
- wherein:
- the mobile device is configured to receive a trigger for the audio input, wherein the trigger indicates whether the local microphone or the wireless transceiver is an input source for the audio input;
- the mobile device is configured to determine at least one parameter for the audio processor based on at least one input characteristic of the input source;
- the mobile device is configured to route the audio input from the input source, based on the trigger, to the audio processor with the at least one parameter.
