An electronic device includes: an Application Processor (AP) including a CPU; and an audio processing unit configured to: receive an audio stream of M channels from the CPU, convert the M-channel audio stream into an N-channel audio stream, the N-channel being different from the M-channel, output the N-channel audio stream through an output device. The audio processing unit is further configured to: detect a connection with the external electronic device through an audio output interface; determine whether to stop the converting the M-channel audio stream into the N-channel audio stream, based on information received from the CPU; and transmit, via the audio output interface, the M-channel audio stream to the external electronic device in response to the determination of stopping the converting the M-channel audio stream into the N-channel audio stream.

Electronic device for converting number of audio channels, and electronic device operating method

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes an internal microphone, a communication module, and at least one processor. The processor implements the method, including: receiving, through the communication module, a first audio signal input through an external microphone included in an external electronic device communicatively connected to the electronic device, activating the internal microphone in response to detecting a device switch event switching from the external microphone to the internal microphone while receiving the first audio signal, receiving a second audio signal input through the internal microphone, synchronizing and mixing the first audio signal and the second audio signal during a designated first time period, and deactivating the external microphone upon detecting lapse of the designated first time period.

Electronic device for audio input and method for operating the same

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a device and method for processing an audio signal by using a setting related to a volume of an audio signal in an electronic device. The electronic device may comprise a sound output device and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: check a setting related to a volume of an audio signal to be output using the sound output device; when the setting related to the volume falls into a first designated range, process the audio signal in a state where the range of the volume is set to have a first resolution; when the setting related to the volume falls into a second designated range, process the audio signal in a state where the range of the volume is set to have a second resolution; and output the audio signal by using the sound output device, the audio signal having been processed in a state where the range of the volume is set to have a resolution corresponding to one of the first resolution and the second resolution. Other embodiments may be possible.

Method and electronic device for processing audio signal on basis of resolution set on basis of volume of audio signal

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a housing, microphone, wireless communication circuit, processor, memory, and stylus pen. The processor is configured to implement the method, including: when the stylus pen is located in the elongated hole, operate both the at least one first microphone and the second microphone to detect sound, and when the stylus pen is not located in the elongated hole, operate only the first microphone to detect sound.
