Abstract

An audio capture device selects between multiple microphones to generate an output audio signal depending on detected conditions. The audio capture device determines whether one or more microphones are wet or dry and selects one or more audio signals from the one or more microphones depending on their respective conditions. The audio capture device generates a mono audio output signal or a stereo output signal depending on the respective conditions of the one or more microphones.
