Abstract: A digitally controlled microphone with audio compressor includes a capsule; a compressor circuitry having a compressor engine, a digitally controlled root mean square (RMS) detector and a digitally controlled analog processor; a bypass switch to the compressor circuitry; an analog to digital converter (ADC); a digital processor that sends digital audio to a host and receives a second digital audio signal; a digital to analog converter (DAC) and a summing circuit that combine the audio with the audio from the host and send it to a digitally-controlled headphone amplifier and a headphone jack; a microphone body; a serial host interface connector; and hardware controls on the microphone body.

Abstract: A digitally controlled microphone with audio compressor includes a capsule that converts sound waves into an analog audio signal; a compressor circuitry that receives and compresses the analog audio signal; a preamp positioned within the microphone body that amplifies the analog audio signal; a microphone body that encloses the compressor circuitry, capsule, and preamp; an interface that outputs the compressed digital audio signal; and an XLR connector that outputs the amplified analog audio signal. The XLR connector may enable the provision of phantom power to the preamp during an analog-only mode operation.
