Automatic microphone switching

A method comprising:

• initiating a sound capture event within an apparatus;
• receiving at least two audio signals during the sound capture event, wherein the at least two audio signals are provided by at least two microphones associated with the apparatus;
• determining at least one microphone operational parameter based on the received at least two audio signals;
• and
• controlling the sound capture event such that at least one of the at least two audio signals is processed based on the at least one microphone operational parameter.

An apparatus comprising:

• a controller configured to initiate a sound capture event;
• at least two microphones configured to capture at least two audio signals for the sound capture event;
• a detector configured to determine at least one microphone operational parameter based on the at least two audio signals;
• an audio capture processor configured to process at least one of the at least two audio signals;
• and
• wherein the controller is configured to control the sound capture event such that at least one of the at least two audio signals is processed based on the at least one microphone operational parameter.

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer code configured to with the at least one processor cause the apparatus at least to:

• initiate a sound capture event within an apparatus;
• receive at least two audio signals during the sound capture event, wherein the at least two audio signals are provided by at least two microphones associated with the apparatus;
• determine at least one microphone operational parameter based on the received at least two audio signals;
• and
• control the sound capture event such that at least one of the at least two audio signals is processed based on the at least one microphone operational parameter.
