Forking Transmit and Receive Call Audio Channels

A system for forking transmit and receive call audio channels, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one memory having stored therein instructions which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform a process, the process including:
• during an active call, receiving a first audio stream of first call audio that originates from a far-end telephony device;
• during the active call, receiving a second audio stream of second call audio that originates from a microphone of a near-end headset;
• during the active call, generating a third audio stream containing the first call audio by processing the first audio stream;
• during the active call, generating a fourth audio stream containing the second call audio by processing the second audio stream;
• during the active call, generating a fifth audio stream containing the first call audio;
• during the active call, generating a sixth audio stream containing the second call audio;
• and
• during the active call, concurrently transmitting:
• the third audio stream containing the first call audio for output by a speaker of the near-end headset,
• the fourth audio stream containing the second call audio for receipt by the far-end telephony device, and
• the fifth audio stream containing the first call audio and the sixth audio stream containing the second call audio for receipt by a predetermined destination.

A system for forking transmit and receive call audio channels, comprising:

• a first receive channel configured to receive first call audio from a microphone of a headset;
• a second receive channel configured to receive second call audio that originates from a far-end telephony device;
• a signal processing block configured to generate processed first call audio by processing the first call audio, and to generate processed second call audio by processing the second call audio;
• a first transmit channel configured to transmit the processed first call audio, as a first audio stream, for receipt by the far-end telephony device;
• a second transmit channel configured to transmit the processed second call audio, as a second audio stream, to a speaker of the headset;
• a third transmit channel configured to receive the first call audio via a first path that bypasses the signal processing block, and to receive the processed first call audio via a second path, wherein the third transmit channel is configured to selectively output, as a third audio stream, one of the first call audio and the processed first call audio;
• and
• a fourth transmit channel configured to receive the second call audio via a third path that bypasses the signal processing block, and to receive the processed second call audio via a fourth path, wherein the fourth transmit channel is configured to selectively output, as a fourth audio stream, one of the second call audio and the processed second call audio;
• wherein the first transmit channel, the second transmit channel, the third transmit channel, and the fourth transmit channel are configured to concurrently output the first audio stream, the second audio stream, the third audio stream, and the fourth audio stream, respectively.
