Abstract: An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a first microphone, a second microphone, a memory; and a processor. The processor implements the method, including: determining whether a voice is detected in a first sound signal detected by the first microphone; determine whether a present recording period is a voice period or a silent period based on the determination, when the present period is the silent period, receive a second sound signal via the second microphone and analyze a noise signal included therein, remove noise signals from one of the first and second sound signals, based on characteristics of the voice period or the analyzed noise signal, and combine the first and second sound signal into an output signal and transmit the output signal to an external device.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit, a speaker, a microphone, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether there is auditory data stored in the memory of the electronic device when an external electronic device is connected thereto through the communication circuit, send a request for auditory data to the external electronic device when there is no auditory data stored in the memory, receive the auditory data from the external electronic device, correct data, at the electronic device, about the sound received through the microphone using the auditory data, receive corrected audio data from the external electronic device, synthesize the corrected data about the sound and the corrected audio data received from the external device to obtain first synthesized data, and output a first new sound corresponding to the first synthesized data through the speaker.
