Abstract
An audio device with an electro-acoustic transducer and a processor that is configured to determine if input audio signals are speech-based, and if the input audio signals are determined to be speech-based apply speech dynamic range compression to the input audio signals, to develop revised audio signals. The revised audio signals are provided to the transducer.
Claims20
A computer program product having a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer program logic encoded thereon that, when performed on an audio device that is configured to play audio signals over an electro-acoustic transducer, causes the audio device to:
- determine if input audio signals are speech-based;
- if the input audio signals are determined to be speech-based, apply speech dynamic range compression to the input audio signals, to develop revised audio signals;
- and
- provide the revised audio signals to the transducer.
An audio device, comprising:
- an electro-acoustic transducer;
- and
- a processor that is configured to:
- determine if input audio signals are speech-based, and if the input audio signals are determined to be speech-based apply speech dynamic range compression to the input audio signals, to develop revised audio signals;
- and
- provide the revised audio signals to the transducer.
